    Default weirdo blockbet/value spot

    HEM crashed while I tried to look up the stats, but nevermind. He was 30/10-ish It was his first 3-bet in 50-ish hands, and I think I had a note on bet sizing... anyway I thought QQ+ was a huge part of his range.

    When I posted this in IRC I was expecting to get trashed for the turn call given reads, but haters hated the river bet, because "I never get called by worse".
    My thinking there is: I want to bet something that will get called by QQ+ without a diamond. No, I'm not good over 50% when called, but if I check I might get valuebetbluffed by QQ+ without a diamond, and I can't call. Someone suggested c/c which makes my head explode like a watermelon.

    Because I'm lazy I haven't figured out if I have equity to call the turn, but I'm pretty sure I don't unless villain can have dumb hands that I already beat.
