    I'd shove as played. Turn raise seems meh but alright.

    I like shoving, seems almost mandatory. He was getting a reasonable price on the turn (if he's loose and not risk adverse he'd take this into account more than a nit), he could have Ac2c etc here still..

    I didn't shove because I have a clear unbalance in my range towards draws when I take this line. This is like JTs or a draw almost every time I take this line. Maybe I should start raising KQ on the turn as well, then I can start bluffing here. I guess I should just flat the turn instead if I don't think I can make a profitable shove here.

    Even though you could argue that balance isn't critical, I pretty much expect my range to be perceived correctly by this opponent and I doubt he folds any pair to my shove. Does he have enough unpaired draws here to make shoving profitable? I clearly didn't think so when this hand was played, I guess I was expecting him to shove those.

    Hero (CO) ($596.60)
    Button ($421.10)

    Flop: ($30) 6, Q, K (2 players)
    Hero bets $21, Button calls $21

    a little town called none of your goddamn business
    haha he owned you

    I have no idea how one would perceive an imbalance toward draws when you raise that turn.

    yea agree with Renton, i think u have way more value hands than draws when u do that, perceived anyway
