$4.36 pot ($0.10 rake)
Final Board: 4 2 9 Q J
Hero showed 4 4 and lost (-$2.14 net)
BTN showed Q Q and won $4.26 ($2.12 net)

opponent was an extremely passive station so it was obvious he had a flush
i bet pot because he would continue with any pair and single spade
should i have bet 3/4 pot, called minraise and than folded river despite amazing pot odds or call river and pray he has Q9s??

Hey riskcore,

Preflop + flop = fine.

Turn we want to bet smaller. Firstly it's hard to extract value vs non-flush hands on this turn. Secondly we want to at least give ourselves a fighting chance of being able to bet/call.

As played, turn call is basically break even. We can call, but folding won't be terrible either. Probably a marginal call due to tiny amount of river implieds.

River super close due to pot-odds. Would be tempted to just click call and hope for random spews or 22/Q9, but with any deeper stacks it's an easy river fold.
