Wondering how to play turn. First, is a check warranted? Seems pretty bad to bet again since V's range after calling flop is I think somewhat Ace heavy? But folding here also seems bad as V will often bet with the rest of his range (i.e., lower pocket pairs and draws) perceiving some weakness from me. I'd probably fold to a pot sized bet or something, but I feel like I should call half pot, check river, and see what V does.

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has Q Q

fold, fold, CO raises to 3 BB, fold, fold, Hero raises to 11 BB, CO calls 8 BB

Flop: (22.4 BB, 2 players) 5 6 A
Hero bets 8 BB, CO calls 8 BB

Turn: (38.4 BB, 2 players) 8
Hero checks, CO bets 18.24 BB, Hero ???

The solver would always fold JJ and TT here and always call QQ, because QQ blocks CO's most frequent ace, AQ.

But in real life at microstakes CO will happily call all sorts of aces preflop, not just AQ. I would just fold the turn.

How are you constructing your flop cbet range? I'd default to checking oop and deep.

Talking from Ignition at that particular BI, Population(I was familiar with if they haven't all turned into bots at the micros there)

I would say A-anything is in villains possible range. They could be full of it. No need to get sticky on this hand. I'd make a reasonable Flop Cbet and fold out if they get aggro at all. The HUD info is not very definitive and even if it was any dumb fish can have Ax

Just fold and 'next'... (even if you have him dominated why bother risking it?)
