villain is unknown, what does he rep OTT with that size? I mean it doesn't make any sense... What is the best line? For me it looked fairly weak, so I raised, I probably should have called his shove, if there was one?

I think vs unknown marginal, he has sets 22,66. 2 pairs, good Q.
Flop call ok, turn it is close most likely call

sets, 2 pairs (by the way only 3combo Q6s, maybe less), and he bets 1/2 pot, I mean does it really happen that often on that type of the board? I could give him AcTc , but I cannot give TPTK+ whatsoever

Dunno we have any fold equity, he will jam all his fdro and some other hands. I know size stupid, but I am suspicious

If you want to raise, raise to a size that commits you. Raise/folding here would be very silly.
Bluff raising a gutshot or something is ok, but not such a strong hand. It would be a total waste.
So either call or jam or raise to a committing size.

Pot odds = 15/50 = 30%
I don't think you have 30% equity vs a bet/3bet range on the Turn.

Hi, mbml
this size gives me an option to jam the river w FE (15$ in 20 pot), so if he bets so small and calls, river brick, I could get additional money from weak TP, basted draw, whereas if I jam OTT he could potentially call TP(the same thoughts with betting larger - I decrease my FE - he won't fold any TP)
I eliminated call as an option given the fact that he looks so weak, but still probably better the me.
don't you think that I will have +EV bluff spot OTR if he calls?

-thanks, Max

you can do that with other hands, but not with this hand.

The issue I pointed out previously is much more impt IMO. If you have only 25% equity and are forced to bet/fold here because you are being offered pot odds of 30% to call a jam, that would be absolutely disastrous.

I guess it's slightly likelier that he's weak, but you cannot be too sure that he'll never 3-bet the Turn against your raise.
