V is 39 / 26 / 12 over 35 hands.

Is my play pretty standard or should I be more concerned by the cold call from the BB

Yatahay Network - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 113.5 BB
Hero (SB): 123.5 BB
BB: 81.5 BB
UTG: 78 BB
MP: 118.5 BB
CO: 98.5 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Q

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 3 BB, Hero raises to 12 BB, BB calls 11 BB, fold

Flop: (27 BB, 2 players) 8

Hero checks, BB checks

Turn: (27 BB, 2 players) 3

Hero bets 17.5 BB, BB calls 17.5 BB

River: (62 BB, 2 players) 8

Hero bets 62 BB, BB calls 52 BB and is all-in

Bet flop he is obv a fish, so he can show up with random Tx 99 ect. Your hand needs some protection, so you dont want to give free card.

The flop is probably a 100% bet for at least 1/2 pot against a fish.

Don't we expect V to bet a bunch of hands that he would call with? My thought was that he will probably bet far too wide for value and can also over bluff here.

This may be true, but then you would want to mostly check AA and maybe some KK. QQ gets bet more often in theory anyway because equity denial is much more important, but just a mandatory bet vs a fish. Same thing with JJ, probably pretty close to a pure bet in theory, and then mandatory bet vs a fish

You need be really sure v is extremely likely to bet to justify a x here with QQ
