opponent 124 hands 22/14 with a 3bet of 6% (seems like a decent player)

PokerStars - $0.10 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

UTG: 189.5 BB
Hero (CO): 106 BB
BTN: 160 BB
SB: 100 BB
BB: 94.4 BB

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Q♦ A♣

fold, Hero raises to 2.5 BB, BTN calls 2.5 BB, fold, fold

Flop: (6.5 BB, 2 players) J♣ 7♦ Q♥
Hero bets 5 BB, BTN calls 5 BB With his cold call on the button I hit this range hard than he does. I see a lot more smaller pocket pairs. broadways hands would more likely to 3bet here.

Turn: (16.5 BB, 2 players) K♣
Hero bets 11 BB, BTN calls 11 BB Still my range is better here than his. I do a large bet to give him a hard to fo any flush- and straightdraws.

River: (38.5 BB, 2 players) 5♣
Hero bets 19.1 BB, BTN calls 19.1 BB the club card completes here and I think a x/f should have been better here. The reason is he called 2 large bets. So flushdraw completes here. possible T9 for straights to and he also has some K in his range.

What do you think?

Spoiler

Hero shows Q♦ A♣ (One Pair, Queens)
(Pre 59%, Flop 79%, Turn 20%)
BTN shows K♠ J♠ (Two Pair, Kings and Jacks)
(Pre 41%, Flop 21%, Turn 80%)
BTN wins 73.2 BB

i would go for something completely different:

x/c, x/c, x/jam.

That king on the turn messes stuff up... I would go into the pot-control mode, x/c if the guys bet is not more than half a pot, x/f if it's more

Turn: (16.5 BB, 2 players) K♣
Hero bets 11 BB, BTN calls 11 BB Still my range is better here than his

Could you explain this a bit more, please? In a way, you are correct, my calculations against a potential BTN calling range tells me you had 66% equity here (on turn)

If villain knows what type of range he should cold call preflop then its actually very good board for him as he should have not only pockets but also broadways in his range, thats why I dont mind check/calling but bet with TPTK shouldnt be major crime either.

On turn however King is not greatest card for your hand - a lot of villain calling range improves. Mandatory x/c for me. On river just like Pokamon suggested its excellent combo to turn into bluff - With Ac and blockers on table he shouldnt have many flushes.

Doesn't your all-in bet depend on the opponent's bet? e.g.: If he is already committed to the pot, I don't see how jamming can benefit...

I have the feeling that jamming on the river is going to be a big variance kind of play. If villain bets on the river, I see him stacking of with quite some hands that actually have you beat. But once again, what do I know, I have never played NL10 before, so I might be completely wrong here.

I agree that x/c the turn is better. The only thing with x/jam the river, these are the microstakes. Will he ever fold?

Something else, is it true that on the river if I start jamming is more like a bluff? That x/jam looks much more stronger?
