Q2s pure bluffing paired boards

flop- are you doing that also?

Paired boards a realtive strong for the SB (his highcards/PP stuff has great equity on thos textures) but it's abosulte weak overall (so it's hard to make pair+). This properties make it ideal to c/r vs recreationals and weak regs but you have to be careful vs better regs bc it's defficult to be balnced on paired boards.

flop- .. what about sizing?

I like the min c/r.

turn - I think in this case against random player I should give up while against regular I could bet close to t100 and shove most of rivers - what do you say on that plan?

I would probably 2nd barrel on this texture sice a decent amount of Villains highcard hands will call the raise and fold to a turn barrel. I would tend to 1 barreln on board like Q88. t100 in t240 souds sufficient to fold out Villain's highcard stuff...

ok so after turn call you give up rvr, right? and against everyone?

Your bluff only works vs hands that you already beat. All better hands will call at least your raise (sometimes even a bet ott since you dont rep much). So I dont like it too much.
I'd rather ch/raise hands like J7s which can get an equity boost on the turn (and with whom u may fold out more better hands).

I'd say u can easily fold Q2 against this tight opponent.

so would you c/call Qhigh against wide opener ?

Imo its not an ideal hand but Q + backdoor FD is not so bad. I agree that most hand wont fold on the flop therefore I think is mandatory to 2nd barrel to fold out A-high, K-high type stuff...

All better hands will call at least your raise (sometimes even a bet ott since you dont rep much)

And most hands which are behind capture a decent amount of the pot bc it will be very difficult to realize our equity with Q-high. Therefore we can be happy if we fold out some equity share but I agree that Villain has to fold a decent amount of K-high/ A-high to our turn barrel to make this line profitable.
