Hand converted by PokerTracker 3

BTN: $4.05
SB: $3.92
BB: $10.80
UTG: $6.99
MP: $4.81
Hero (CO): $5.05

SB posts SB $0.02, BB posts BB $0.05

Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero has Q♣ Q♠

fold, fold, Hero raises to $0.16, fold, SB calls $0.14, fold

Flop: ($0.37, 2 players) 5♣ 9♠ J♥
SB checks, Hero bets $0.32, SB calls $0.32

Turn: ($1.01, 2 players) 3♦
SB checks, Hero bets $0.92, SB calls $0.92

River: ($2.85, 2 players) Q♦
SB bets $2.52 and is all-in, Hero calls $2.52

Spoiler

SB shows T♥ K♣ (Straight, King High) (Pre 29%, Flop 20%, Turn 11%)
Hero shows Q♣ Q♠ (Three of a Kind, Queens) (Pre 71%, Flop 80%, Turn 89%)
SB wins $7.56

x/c - x/c - shuv, so often the stone cold.

That said, I doubted T8 was in his range and I thought he might play all sets and QJ the same way.

So, a familiar type of hand vs a familiar style opponent at NL5.
My question is -
can this ever be a fold spot?

Thanks,
MD

Hey MasochisticDesire,

We should fold a ton of hands to opponents river shove, because it's often very strong. It can be a bluff a small percentage of the time however. It can also be a value-shove with worse when we hold a hand as strong as top set. For these reason I think we should make the call here.
