check the flop

I think you played it OK, I would call the river

Yea I like checking the flop here, and try to get to showdown cheaply as were not very likely to get action from much we beat imo.
As played I like the river fold. His range has us crushed and if we call and lose we are crippled.

I like your river fold. Check the flop. Check behind on the turn too if he doesnt' bet. call a small river bet.

I don't understand why we should check the flop.. After the queen totally shut down.. NH
