We need to be good roughly 31% of the time. On the other hand, this looks very much like Qx. Our hand is underrepped though and it isn't impossible for him to have 9x too.

Very very dry runout. If he has a Q, good for him. (Why would he play a Q this way)


I dont think a queen checks turn very often and bets river this small. Snap call imo. Dont think we can raise here as we will fold out everything worse and get calls from the random Q that somehow gets here that way.


I agree, unless this is a very weird slowplay, Villain should probably bet and charge JTs + flushdraws + worse Qx.

Anyways, I called and he had AQo 😃


This would be crazy to fold. Tbh in my eyes it's probably a pretty clear value jam
