I expect 3bets from his premiums and strong Ax preflop here. On the flop I expect raises from his Qx and FDs maybe add in some hh hands. but then he calls. The hard thing for me is that the strongest Qx I expect is QJ which has somewhat of a hard time getting stacks in not to mention the rest of his Qx which are weak. On top of that we block a ton of flush draws or at least strong flush draws.

by the turn I think i have to call here. I don't think a hand like Qc2c stacks off on the turn. ofc sets can still be in his range as well as two pairs.

Against a range of Qx and flushdraws ,plus fds and sets, which I expect most of the time we only 37% so turn has to be a call. If we take out some Qx because of the flop action it gets better for us

Hi legand73

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: I think the better question here should be why we bet the turn to begin with (instead of why we bet/fold or if we should bet/call).

What were your reasons behind the call?

Given the lines taken here I don't think he calls floats on the flop so that means he has something (could be a weaker draw) so why bet the turn? Made hands surely don't fold.
