Zoom Poker Challenge - Starting at 2NL

Another one I may not have played it correctly: http://www.boomplayer.com/en/poker-h...661_A4EA09E675

My question is about the turn. Is it really bad to move all in with the third low spade card coming completing a possible flush and straight draw? I didn't believe he had a draw because he had previously raised my bet on the flop.

A couple of fun hands where I just can't understand the thinking process behind these crazy players lol

Hey everyone! I appreciate all the comments and I am sorry for not coming back with any updates. I might still make it to Gold Star, but it's gonna be tough! Haven't been able to put a lot of volume and this is my graph for 2NL for the last couple of days:

I am currently in the red at 5/10NL after playing pretty badly at times and receiving bad beats, but surprisingly positive at 25NL (only took a few shots some time ago with 1 table open). My bankroll is low at the moment but there are only about 350 VPPs left for me to unlock the $50 VIP Bonus! In order to become a Gold Star by the end of the month I would have to just skip 2NL for now though. Would you say it's too risky if I play 5NL (with 8 Buy ins) and then 10NL (with maybe 10BI)? I would try to play more tight aggressive and ABC poker so that I don't get a lot of variance. Also, are my stats too passive (VPIP 15, PR 10, 3-Bet 4, C-Bet 73)?

Should I have been worried about the villain having a full house here or it was most likely the player would Just show a Three of a kind or maybe a flush?

BTN: $3.01
SB: $2.01
BB: $2.47
UTG: $3.73
UTG+1: $1.45
MP: $2.13
Hero (MP+1): $5.07
MP+2: $5.20
CO: $2.14

SB posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.03) Hero has Q♦ T♦

fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to $0.06, fold, fold, fold, fold, BB calls $0.04

BB bets $0.12, Hero calls $0.12

Turn: ($0.37, 2 players) 3♦
BB checks, Hero bets $0.20, BB calls $0.20

River: ($0.77, 2 players) J♠
BB bets $1.74, Hero calls $1.74

BB shows 6♠ K♠ (One Pair, Eights)
Hero shows Q♦ T♦ (Flush, Queen High)
Hero wins $4.10

IMO on the flop I wouldn't put him on anything other then a Ax and maybe a FD himself. I would have 3b Cbet him on flop. Probably would have taken the pot there. Interesting that he ck/c the turn. I can see the confusion but either way you've made your hand and now its just about value betting from here on out. If he did make his flush I see him raising your turn, but that wasn't the case. I think on the river he went for out for lunch, not exactly sure why he would think K high is good here, but for your sake you shove and you have him hook line and sinker like the fish he is. Nicely done!

Without knowing his stats again I can't see or have him on any made hand. If he had any piece of the board i think a raise from him on the flop or turn you have seen.
