£0.05/£0.10 6-max cash game - Sky Poker

UTG (£17.34)
SB (£15.28)
Hero - BB (£11.27)

Preflop: Hero in BB with QQ
UTG raises to £0.30, 3 folds, SB calls for £0.25, Hero raises to £1.40, UTG folds, SB calls for £1.20

Flop (£3.30): 8102
SB bets £2.48, Hero raises to £4.96, SB calls for £2.48.

Turn (£13.22): 10
SB checks, Hero shoves all-in for £4.91, SB calls for £4.91.

River (£23.04): 3

SB shows 109 for Three 10s.


My read on SB was that he was playing a lot of hands and was quite bluff-happy.

Not sure of the min-raise on the flop and not sure of the shove on the turn.

It's very rarely a good idea to minraise if that creates a SPR of 0.4 on the following street. Just shove it in on the flop.

yeah, if you're going to play just blast it in on the flop, there's not the depth to do much else. don't post results.

how about villians check on the turn. there is a lot to that. do you think it was the right play or not.

I'm not a very good player admittedly so this may be wrong, but I thought he was on a flush draw so I didn't want to check to allow him to catch it on the river. Looking at it now though, I should have considered that he had a full house and was slow-playing it since he didn't have to worry about the flush hitting.

Minraising is not a good option here. Either you are ahead of Tx, or he has 1 or 2 primary draws, and you want to get maximum value in either case.

Shoving on the turn is irrelevant, as he will be shoving the river, and you can't really fold an overpair when you are getting 3.6 to 1 on your call.

Yes, you should have shoved the flop, but it was going to play out the same no matter what
