JJ again.
Was a bit unsure with Q and three players on the flop, but I bet since no one else did.
I figured no turn for free to hit a third heart.

Poker Stars $0.05/$0.10 Limit Hold'em - 8 players
Hand History Converter

Pre Flop: (1.4 SB) Hero is BTN with J :diamond: J :spade:
1 fold, UTG+1 calls, 1 fold, MP2 calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, 1 fold, BB calls, UTG+1 calls, MP2 calls

Flop: (8.4 SB) 2 :heart: Q :diamond: T :heart: (4 players)
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, MP2 checks, Hero bets, BB calls, UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds

Turn: (5.2 BB) 6 :spade: (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets, BB calls all in

River: (7.2 BB) T :diamond: (2 players - 1 is all in)

i think you played it well. on the flop you have a strong enough hand to cbet for value, even 4way.
turn is an even easier bet now that it's heads up and you didnt get raised on the flop, no reason to think you're behind. plus BB is going allin anyway, so we don't even have to worry about getting raised or whatever

Hi!

Chance that out of those 6 oponent cards at least one has Qx is pretty high (around 35% if my math is correct) and also that when they do you are in a pretty bad shape...but...

The time they dont have Qx or better(that should be at least 50% on this board) you are doing quite well and you are ahead...so you want to protect you equity edge here and make hands that have outs versus you to fold. And you arent really targeting FD,SD(since these will correctly call) but you targeting hands like A4,K8,if two of them fold pocket pair that is 4 outs.... so bet for protection and also for value vs many hands that will call(Tx,FD,SDs,gutshots,....)

All in all you make 2 players fold flop which s obviously a great result and fine protection seen in practice.

Good to know more about the why it was a good move.
Maybe I can make some more of them later. :f_cool:
