Stats on Villain: 23/18 over 277 hands with: cbetf: 64, cbetT: 33, WTSD: 31

Preflop: Looking back at my chart, QTs is actually slightly outside of the normal recommended cold-calling range SBvsBTN. However, he makes it 2.5x and I felt comfortable playing the hand.

Flop: We flop strong and I am confident that he will likely fire a cbet. His sizing has me assuming he either has overpair or strong draw. Perhaps he normally cbets high on boards like that? Not 100% sure. What I wonder is, should we check-raise here? Or just call, if we put him on a strongish range. I have opted to call in this hand.

Turn: I thought this was an interesting card. I felt I could easily enough represent a draw by taking a check-raise line. At the micros, turn-checkraise seems to rep a super strong range but I wanted to take my chances that he would put me on a draw... or that he had a big draw himself. When he shoves it is a trivial call.

Overall, I would like advice about how to construct a range for villain in this spot. Also, did we extract max value given that he could have also shown up with a wide range of hands because of BTN aggression?

Pf: no way im folding this. Either call or 3b. Even against a 3bb open.

F: your kicker is weak. I dont like raising here. Raising here makes sense if u think u can checkraise here and fire turn and river and expect him to calldown w plenty of worse hands. Out of a range of KK AA JJ QJ KQ AQ, QT isnt doing all that great here.

Is he calling down w AJ KJ? Probably not.

T: EZ Raise here. Board completes some straights, u now have the boat, and with 2 flushdraws possible, they will put u on a wide range of hands.

He is definitely jamming some worse hands here, if he is loose enough he might jam trips as well.

I think its just better to go for value On the turn because of the draws. If theres any indication that he might fire river (if he pots or overbets), then u should consider slowplaying the turn.
