Big O: small bet sizing makes this hand very weird Big O: small bet sizing makes this hand very weird

Hero is playing in a loose, private, recreational 1/2 Big O game. 8 handed. Hero has a solid winning image.

UTG, UTG+1, UTG+2 all limp, HJ and CO fold, BU limps, Hero in SB raises to 8 with A27JQ. BB and all 4 limpers call. Effective stacks are ~400.

Flop (48): Q56
Hero bets 19, BB calls, UTG folds, UTG+1, UTG+2, and BU all call. 5 players to the turn.

Turn (143): 8
Hero bets 66. Folds to UTG+2 who shoves for 325, BU folds. Hero calls.

Should Hero lead flop? How much?
Should Hero lead turn? How much?
Should Hero call turn shove?

1) No, check flop, your fd is likely dominated 6 handed.

2) No. Now, it's even more likely your fd is dominated. Check.

3) Yes, call turn shove

Agree with Asta0's comments.

However, based on your your previous post (the Q-set) and the fact that you have a solid winning image and yet ask very basic questions, I'd assume that this game is extremely recreational. If people are calling pre with nonsensical hands, calling flop bets with weak hands, making huge bets with mediocre hands and so on I think this hand makes a decent flop bet. Same applies to turn. Normally I'd be checking this hand, but betting is fine in very loose games and after a bet you are certainly getting it in vs one opponent.

Yeah, extremely recreational is correct. I've only played Big O in this game so I don't really know how to play. You basically outlined my thinking. With bets this small, they can be calling with anything on the flop, and naked A3 on the turn, so I thought I could get a bit of value. They do know not to stack off with less than the nut flush though.

A lot of the nut nut hands raise pre, so you're often chopping
