340 live tournament.

Blinds are 100/200/200 bb ante hero has 17k. We are seven handed while we wait for players to fill empty seats.

It folds to the CO ... a blue haired man three times my age (I'm 42) open limps with 28k behind. He is super passive fit or fold post flop and I have won some nice pots IP when he gave up ui. I am next to act otb so I iso raise with Qs8h to 800. SB folds but BB calls with 41k behind. He looks like the kind of guy who is probably months behind on child support.

Three way flop 2700. Qc6c3c ... BB checks. CO checks. I bet 1300. BB calls. CO folds.

Heads up turn 5300. Qc6c3c(Qd) BB immediately donks 4500. I have 14,900 behind.

We call but not to thrilled how this is playing out and try real hard to improve and get a read on the river if not

and if the read looks like bad news, probably call anyway. He could have something like a middle pair or amusingly played overpair. People do stuff

So you prefer calling off rather than shoving ott?

wtf fold pre

as played call turn. vil shouldnt have too many (if any) XxXc hands in his range with that line in which case your hand needs little to no protection. I assume that when you iso that wide you have literally tons of better hands in your range that want to call turn and river so probably folding river unimproved.

raising turn is pretty pointless vs hands that you are either way ahead or way behind against, so easy call.

Tons of better hands than trip queens? We have tons of hands that are worse. Sure if we have Q8, we have AQ-Q9 as well. But we also have 77-AA, Ax with ace of clubs, etc. Villains line is very fishy. I am calling and calling all rivers that don't bring a 4th club.

What's your isoing range otb versus a very predictable open limper?

You don't think if we shove he's never calling with a single club in his hand?

We call and river brings Kd ... villain shoves.

I think you might have oversold how bad this guy is/was but if he is that bad, that limpy, that fit or fold, is this a spot where he LEADS tries to make people fold with Axclub on turn? let alone river. What hands do you beat that he makes a pretty big turn bet with?

I expect to see KQ,QJ, Q10, 666, 333 here way to much. If he had 10,10 or 99 he is not as you describe him.

Sorry got the two players mixed up.
