$200 Zone: Multiway Spot, How are we Proceeding?
Eff stacks 100bb
Hero opens Qs Qd in CO 2.4x
57bb stack BTN calls
SB squeezes to 8bb
Hero elects to call
BTN calls
I elect to call here to keep the BTN, a presumed rec player due to his odd stack size, in the pot. In hindsight, that might be a better play (keep the fish in) when we're holding something less vulnerable than QQ. Perhaps I should reserve this line more for the KK and AA population of hands that are less overcard vulnerable.
As played, we see a Flop.
Flop (27bb): Qc Jd 9c
SB bets 12BB
Hero ???
I'm a little unsure the best thing to do here. Do we opt to Flat to try and keep the rec player in the pot? Or is the texture of this board so wet that we need to be ignoring the rec player in this situation? Ordinarily, if the board were say Q72r, I think this is an obvious flat.

Wouldn't call QQ there preflop, only if BTN somewhat splashy player. Giving too much free equity with our strong hand and doubtfully we are winning (stacking players) post flop all that often.
Think I'm just calling flop,raising would be too strong of the play in other eyes. Prefer 99 or JJ as raise, and QQ call.
Also would lean toward call on flop. Equities could shift a lot on later streets and you block some of the calling range you have crushed. Also lean toward fast playing preflop despite the fish being in the pot. JJ becomes closer to a pure call imo. QQ can get AIPF, but JJ is a mix at equilibrium and probably shifts toward a call with a fish behind that almost always puts more money in.
