Second orbit at table. Saw villain min-raise once with a draw. Has monster stack for 1-2
I just doubled up the previous hand AIPF AA vs QQ
Hero UTG+3 $400
Villain UTG+2 $1400
Dealt 
UTG+2 limps $2
Hero raise to $20.
Hijack calls
UTG+2 calls
Flop ($63)

UTG+2 check
Bet $50
Hijack folds
UTG+2 calls
Turn ($163)
UTG+2 check blind

Bet $100
UTG+2 calls

The probability of someone watching you is proportional to the stupidity of your action. | |

What kind of range are you putting him on?
You make him sound like a tight but competent player. Would he limp and then call your big raise with something like 22, 33, 4-5 Hearts?
He could also have 7-7. Maybe he limped with QQ? A-3 is a distinct possibility. I doubt he made two pair with the board, there's no likely hand he's calling 18 raise PF that matches (Q-3, 3-2, 3-7 are all retarded).
What do you beat? Not much except stone cold bluff. I doubt he'd play that aggressive with KQ, QJ, or even call PF with those. I really doubt he has something like 66 and decided to shove you on the river with a hand like that.
Then again, you had just gotten to the table. Maybe he put you on exactly AQ, and thought the river was a double scare card for you. Maybe since you're a new live player you have tells.
If I had to choose one hand, I'd say pocket 7s, especially with how he played turn and river.
that's my noob analysis, i'm actually interested in what people think of it. I'm trying to learn poker. |

Just consulted my NL2 expert, and she says snap call because fuck him, thats why. If he has a boat then oh well. Basically these players are so fucking stupid they'll set "traps" with KQ and TT+. I'm inclined to agree. Just give live players no respect whatsoever. |

I think this line is pretty much always value from weak players that realize that don't have position on the river and don't want to lose value
so they lead shove with teh nuts...
I'm always folding here vs unkown live player |

fold every time unless you've gotten a read that the villain is at all competent...which not many random live players are |
|
shoving here as a bluff at 50NL is like explaning calcalus to a 6 month old cat wtf are you thinking - TalentedTom | |

Calling all day and being happy about it...sets and bd draws are there and if so im not too upset about it
definantely left out alot of info tho...these kinda spots just go with your read, live tells, does he look nervous, he shove fast, staring you down, young asian kid? noticing these kind of things will help with your game dramatically.
you think this player could do this with 45? A4 A5
also obv curious about results?? |

Need more info but it's probably a fold. Live def plays different then online. People generally never ever bluff, and as such almost everyone either plays weak-tight or loose-passive. Also, although it'll sound stupid you should be pot controlling more and especially cause you're deep with villain. Villain could easily have Qx of hearts here and decide to bet his flush on the river. He's not necessarily thinking you'll check behind just "I have a flush, I'm going to bet it". I see this mentality a lot.
Bottom line is, theres really nothing here you beat. He's not doing this with a worse queen and he's not pulling some elaborate bluff. He might even have a hand like KK/AA here. That's how bad these guys are. |

Villain was a 20-something caucasian and had KQ of hearts
It was one of my first few sessions at the casino and I would definitely fold in this spot now. Villain asked for a count on the turn and took ages to call |
