    Default $16/18m - 2P and thinking about folding??

    Am I starting to play like him?


    Villain had tight stats so far over a small sample and I am not sure what range he would 3bet me (a TAG who pots it into 5 people) with.
    I sharkscoped him and he was a winner, but also over a small sample (100ish).
    If you reply, can you perhaps give a range for villain?

    Hero (SB): t1480
    BB: t1500
    UTG: t1040
    UTG+1: t2060
    UTG+2: t1500
    MP1: t1500
    MP2: t1500

    Pre Flop: Hero is SB with Q 2
    UTG calls t20, UTG+1 calls t20, 1 fold, MP1 calls t20, 1 fold, CO calls t20, 1 fold, Hero calls t10, BB checks

    Flop: (t120) Q 2 5 (6 players)
    Hero bets t100, BB raises to t300, UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, CO folds, Hero ??
    I am just another learning player, so read my comments (very) open minded.

    If you are not going to get your chips in on this board then you shouldn't complete the SB in the first place. I would probably shove over on this board because if another 5 falls on the turn or river or the turn and river pair you're basically fucked.

    The hands that I'd expect BB to have if he's not a terrible player are 22, 55, 52, Q5 and Qx. I can't see any weaker hands (eg. 66-JJ) raising your flop bet with four other players still to act. Of the hands that he might have, we only fear 22, 55 and Q5 so I shove over.

    yeah I typically fold preflop here, very little possibilities with hands like this. I dont think I could get away from this because even some winners could raise KQ/AQ here. imo on such a dry board your more likely to get flatted by sets who want the 4 opps behind to get some chips in

    I'd fold Q2 here on the SB even though you're getting very good odds.. It only puts you in trouble when connected.. This is good though the opponent might have QJ,QT,KQ kinda hands which he limps pre.. I think you should shove over here..

    With 4 limpers at the SB I would never fold unless I had a good reason to think BB will raise. The reason I dont fold is precisly to hit flops like this and destack someone with KQ/QJ. While it is true you are beat by a set I still think your hand is good enough to commit your entire stack on the flop

    I think its an easy shove here on flop. Alot of aggro players 3bet Q10 kicker+ here. Also he could have a hand like 52, 34 here as well as he is BB.
