Was this hand played correct?
I don't see any worse hand paying another bet.

PokerStars - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (CO): 100 BB
BTN: 112.5 BB
SB: 76 BB
BB: 182.5 BB
UTG: 101.5 BB
MP: 100 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Q♥ Q♠

fold, fold, Hero raises to 2.5 BB, fold, SB raises to 6 BB, fold, Hero raises to 17.5 BB, SB calls 11.5 BB

Flop: (36 BB, 2 players) 5♦ A♦ 6♣
SB checks, Hero bets 14 BB, SB calls 14 BB

Turn: (64 BB, 2 players) 5♠
SB checks, Hero checks

River: (64 BB, 2 players) 6♦
SB checks, Hero checks

Spoiler

SB shows 4♣ A♣ (Two Pair, Aces and Sixes)
(Pre 33%, Flop 92%, Turn 95%)
Hero mucks Q♥ Q♠ (Two Pair, Queens and Sixes)
(Pre 67%, Flop 8%, Turn 5%)
SB wins 62 BB

Flush got there, board is paired, I see them min 3b preflop with all kinds of Ax, so it is ok.

SB looks weaker (having less than 100bb), so I would go for a bigger 4betsize.

I would not cbet this flop. His range is Ax heavy. Checking behind flop and hoping for a cheap showdown.

In such situations, i sometimes directly 4bet push vs a non full stack fish. They love to press the call button with something like 55-jj + A9+

What do u guys think about betting the river to get villain away from weak Ax combos? I mean, we do have a range like AJ+ and JJ+ - even with checking OTT. We never make him fold a 5 or 6 for sure, but villain looks pretty weak as well, so he has many Ax and 77-JJ. It should be a hard time for him calling with AT- a value looking river bet.

Thoughts?

On this board, only very loose people would call anything on river, worst case they are splitting the pot 55-66-A high. With Ax, they would surely call.

Of course if I had AJ+ I would bet river for the above reason, but with JJ-QQ It didn't make sense.
Any 88-99-TT-JJ would probably play as we play and check behind the river.

Villian is obviously a fish and he would never fold Ax here. In fact, this is a spot where you take all his stack if you have a strong Ax or 5x/6x. A reg might fold Ax but this guy is the dream opponent - dont bluff him and valuebet him heavy. its a walking atm

Why would you check on flop? What will you do if villain bets on turn?

Viliain hand looks like AK,AQ mostly and JJ. This means 12+6 combos better and 6 combos worse than us,why bet?
If he bets we need to call one bet in theory, but if he bets big it is face up what he have, imo.
