$1.28 pot ($0.04 rake)
Final Board: Q T 4 A Q
Hero showed Q 7 and lost (-$0.63 net)
SB showed K J and won $1.24 ($0.61 net)

There was no stats on this guy, and I took my standart raise from BTN preflop, and he just flat called. On flop - standart cbet, and he check-raises. So what do we have here? Qx, open ended straight draw? Oh f**k this guy, he is shortstacked, lets flat-call. And here goes the turn with his straight, and he min-raises??? Ok, maybe this was right decision from him, and it was, indeed, but I would shove here with my shortstack. And here goes river full of chances for me, and I re-raise here. So was this re-raise right decision from me, or not?

Hi.

Flop: we are getting 20% pot odds, and I'm sure we have way more than 20% equity here. Easy call.

Turn: This is a bad card for us, AJ AK KJ all improves, but he bets so small. I don't see how we can fold here.

River: I think this is the most interesting decision. What is he ever betting here on the river? QX? KJ? AJ AK? AT?

I think with KQ QJ this would be a pretty clear raise, with a QX hand as weak as Q7 I don't think the answer is so clear.

Raising here is only good if we are putting a lot of faith into his bet size tell, that he does not have QX/KJ/TT/44 here after betting so weakly on the River.

For example if we had more money left behind and he did half pot the river, i would never raise here.
