No stats on the Villain.

Doesn't look like he's bluffing here and I feel like he shows up with "sneaky" AA/KK a lot.

But I also think I'm exploitable if I fold them Queens.

So what should we do?

Poker Stars, $0.05/$0.10 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite. View Hand #37892702

BTN: $16.11 (161.1 bb)

UTG: $11.95 (119.5 bb)
Hero (MP): $15.06 (150.6 bb)
CO: $5.54 (55.4 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP with Q

UTG raises to $0.20, Hero raises to $0.70, 4 folds, UTG calls $0.50

Flop: ($1.55) 5

(2 players)
UTG bets $1, Hero raises to $2.30, UTG raises to $3.60, Hero calls $1.30

Turn: ($8.75) 9

(2 players)
UTG bets $7.65 and is all-in, Hero folds

Results: $8.75 pot ($0.39 rake)
Final Board: 5

UTG mucked and won $8.36 ($4.06 net)
Hero mucked Q

and lost (-$4.30 net)

I'm not keen on the flop raise. It's nice to stack hands like 88 now before overcards come if he plays then this way, but I think players have a lot of weak hands and air that you fold out and we'd like them to try bluffing again.

Call turn. His line is nonsense so let's find out.

I'm just calling flop. Keep our range wide, don't fold out villain's bluffs / weak value hands, etc. We're in position, so getting it in on good runouts is pretty easy anyway because we can always bet something like 2/3rd pot OTT if checked to.
