    Default 50nl QQ 3way action flop

    Bodog 50nl 6max. SB is a taggy reg, no reads on other villain.

    Hero is BU ($55)
    SB ($63)
    BB ($50)

    Preflop: Hero is BU with Q Q
    2 folds, CO calls $.50, Hero raises to $2.25, SB calls, BB calls, CO folds

    Flop: ($7.25) 6 9 J (3 players)
    SB checks, BB bets $4.75, Hero calls, SB raises to $9.50, BB folds, Hero??

    Please comment on whether you raise BB's flop bet or just flat as I did, and what to do after the minreraise from the SB.

    I thought about doing this, but doesn't it nix any value I might get from BB when he holds JT/JQ. He probably calls a raise w/AJ/KJ and I might get another bet out of him. On a more drawy board I am certainly raising BB's lead, but this flop is pretty dry.

    What about as played? I cannot see SB doing this with much other than a set he is just trying to valuetown. Am I wrong about that?

    I don't hate the flat, but I think I usually raise. As played I think you're right, even 3 handed is he taking this line with something like tptk? We can get away cheap now.
    Check out my self-deprecation here!

    This.

    But since you didn't and the action played out this way, just fold now. Your most likely dominated now and although you're getting good expressed odds, 90% of the time he's going to force you to put your whole stack in later.
