SB: $48.26 (193 bb)
BB: $31.34 (125.4 bb)
UTG: $25 (100 bb)
Hero (MP): $26.32 (105.3 bb)
CO: $27.42 (109.7 bb)
BTN: $26.33 (105.3 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP with K♣: A♦:
UTG folds, Hero raises to $0.62, 2 folds, SB raises to $2.30, BB folds, Hero calls $1.68

Flop: ($4.85) Q♥: A♥: 8♣: (2 players)
SB bets $3.60, Hero calls $3.60

Turn: ($12.05) Q♠: (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $5.76, SB raises to $11.52, Hero folds

Preflop: Standard open. SB plays 18/12 in 975 hands, 3bets 4,5 (8,3 vs Hero), so I decided to just call.

Flop: Not folding TPTK obviously.

Turn: I believe he could have something like AJ-AT so I decided to value bet, expecting him to call those. He could maybe also have some flushdraws like KhJh, KhTh. When he raised, I believe I'm vs Qx and AA most of the time, so I think even if it's a minraise, I have to fold. Should I just check back the Turn instead of betting (with intention of calling the River)?

I would just check back OTT, betting there looks like overplaying it imo. The problem is flush draw (by checking back we giving him a free card), but doesn´t have much of those (AK of hearts is blocked), so maybe some connectors (but who knows how does he construct his pre ranges). Anyway, this is a standard c OTT, we are not getting 3 streets of value anyway, so make your value bet OTR if he checks again, or just call his bet. That would be my plan :).

Mmhh i not agree with 'it's overplayed', SB has no Q in this spot (just AQ and QQ).
This turn is magic for your range, so SB should not x/r so much, and as you said, you can value any Ax, and draws.

I can find the call just on the turn. Your sizing can let him click back with many draws, and as the turn is pretty good for your range, I'm not expecting many bluff from him on the river.

I don't think calling the turn and folding the river is an option, we will have just $10 left and the pot will be $30. If he bets, we are getting 20% pot odds...

20% or other if he never bluff, you lose always.

Now I'm playing the field .com, and a lot of opponent, especially low limit, have a big problem of ratio value/bluff on the river, so the exploitative fold is always an option.

I also think that calling turn won't do you any good. I think it is well played.

That was my spontaneous thought when reading the HH. There are relatively few draws and I doubt that AJ/AT are calling a bet. But this is colored by my own reluctance to check-call with secondary strength on turn.

if he fold Ax other than AQ AK he'll overfold so I would'nt be so sure.
