Hey guys!
xpost from PG&C but want some additional feedback.
2/5 $500 cap. $1k+~ effective to start the hand with Main V. The two other players had $500~ I believe.
Alll relevant descriptions below/included in HH.
Hero has an active image. Doubled up fairly quickly with TPTK vs. whale, nothing significant since. 8 handed.
Preflop: Recreational player in suit opens to $15 MP. We look down at Q
J
next to act. I call. This player had not opened once this session. Was limping, limp/calling etc. This is likely a mistake, but 3-betting this guy seemed ambitious in game... Anyways, player to my left calls BTN and BB calls.
$60 Flop: Q

. BB checks. Pre flop raiser checks. I bet $40. BTN calls. BB calls. PFR folds.
$140 Turn: Q

. BB donks $45. Probably recreational but just sat down. No significant reads. I raise to $125. BTN now raises to $300 after thinking for a little.
This V covers me and we were around $1k effective to start the hand. This V is Asian, in his 40s I would say, and was fairly active. He had raised me a few times postflop in earlier hands and I folded every time. I don’t remember V getting stacks in at any point but V was taking a good amount of pots down.
In game my thinking was that sets are sometimes/maybe even likely to raise off on the flop 4 ways, which is what had me confused. V could reasonably have the same hand, especially if V is calling all QJo preflop. We're a little on the deeper side for a 100bb cap game.
$855 behind after my bet iirc. I think all three options are on the table. Thoughts?
Thanks!
