MP: $1.96 (98 bb)
CO: $2.72 (136 bb)
BTN: $5.81 (290.5 bb)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Q Q
UTG raises to $0.06, 2 folds, BTN calls $0.06, Hero raises to $0.30, BB raises to $0.60, 2 folds, Hero calls $0.30

Flop: ($1.32) 4 5 J (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $0.50, Hero?

Squeezing preflop with QQ. BTN is a very loose caller. Get minraized by BB, who has position on me. Decide to call with QQ, knowing his range will be narrow KK+.

Not hitting sets on the flop. With 1:3.6 pot odds I think it's an easy fold against his range. I could think about shoving in order to represent JJ, but doubt BB will fold AA on this board.

Im not sure about this hand, i could be wrong: but when u know for sure his range is KK+ and the pot get already so big pre im probably folding. The thing is when the pot getting so big preflop u do not have the possibillity to float one his bet when the flop has no A or a K on it. So im folding pre or i want to see all 5 cards, so then i moving in.

A 15BB call for 'setmining' is indeed -EV. Maybe I'm giving him too tight a range. After 500 hands his range is 4% so maybe TT+, AK. QQ has 48% equity against this range on the flop.

BB betsize signals weak hand (not connecting to board) or might be trapping. Call requires 50/1,82= 27% equity. Could call profitably on the flop?

Fold pre, against his range QQ is to weak to call/raise
