Final Pot BN lost and shows three of a kind, Queens.
MP wins and shows three of a kind, Queens.
MP wins $31.42
Rake is $1.48

Would like to know what do you guys do in this spot. I think this is probably the kind of spots that separate the good players from the average ones.Folding is exploitable but in practice what do we beat when call river? If villain(probably a reg) was trying to get us off middle pair he would probably gave up after we call turn. Wish i had this same thought during the hand...
What do you guys think?

This hand made me realize iam still not too range aware. I know opening ranges but flatting ranges from different positions i still don't know and have to look at charts. Any tips to memorize them faster?

dunno if you can call preflop if you have only 65bb(why you have 65bb)
from villian eyes i think i stack of here again shortstack with AA-KK than i´think your river call wasnt bad

You can find the fold button OTR since I don't think villain jams worse than Qx here and the worst Qx he has is probably QJs. I don't know if flatting QTs pre there is profitable...I guess there are arguments for both folding and flatting. My main concern is about you playing short stacked, don't do that. Turn the auto rebuy option on so you don't get short during the session

Sorry for the stack thing i dont have auto rebuy on, maybe i should.
It's so hard to fold such a strong hand but i guess we're always crushed on river. I'd like know if you guys think villain ever bluffs this board multiway and then fires turn to try to get us off a pocket pair? It seems risky but might be profitable but he wouldn't bluff river i don't think.But even this i'am not sure that it happens too frequently.

i think in a 6max game, he is never going thinner then trips given you most likely have AQo KQo QJs QTs playing exactly this way at a 100% frequency pre flop and post flop. Further, there are no draws that developed on the turn other then A5s A4s, which may not raise pre flop, and may not bet flop. further they may not barrel off when you have so many nutted hands (and you dont have many double floats given there aren't any draws really). For all these reasons, he wud have to be a sicko with like KJ or AK (blocking ur stronger Qx) but most players dont even have a bluffing range here.

pre I tend to fold vs most reg bc you are not ahead of their range and rake is insanely high at low stakes game.

The value QTs has comes from stack sizes and implied odds from when you do straight and flushes. I fold OTR.

I thought my ranges were already on the tigher side. Isn't this a good range for BTN flat vs UTG? QQ-33,AKo-AQo,AQs-ATs,KQs-KTs,QJs-QTs,JTs-J9s,T9s,98s,87s,76s,65s,54s
Should i be tighter at this stakes?

!with full stack my flating range here:
JJ-22, A2s-AQs, 45s+, KQs-KTs, QJ-QTs

Oh sorry, of course i have! This is a multiway spot: one raiser, one caller. So this is a SQZ situation.
Basically multiway IP.
3bet: AA-QQ, AK, and some off suited broadway for bluff, for example: AJo, ATo, KQo, KJo.
If it is heads up, I 3bet more, for example: A9s-A2s.
