hi,

I am sure that I loose value because of the shove. How much do you raise because of the ante. Without ante I would raise 200. Postflop vs a fish. I give him 2 many kings in his range.

200 with antes is big enough on the BTN as well. You have position advantage.
The rest of the hand seems fine. You could consider to 2nd barrel the turn, but that depends per villain. Also, bluff catching is a possibility if we don’t deal with a passive villain.

Cheers,

Heh I first thought that how the heck are you folding river but then noticed the cbet. With QQ this should be check all day long in flop as its really dry Kxx flop.

Reasons to check:

- No need to protect (only one overcard possible)
- Villain has hard time to have hit something weaker. When you use almost 3bb raise preflop its really hard to have hands connecting with 34 part of flop. K on other hand is way easier. Villain shouldnt have pocket pairs in flatting range preflop.
- Really thin to go for two street of value (for villain range reason above)
- You create nasty spot if villain check-raises. Still plausible he might have sensible semibluffs like A5 or 56s

If you do cbet this is spot to make it really small as flop is dry, you have decent range advantage and stacks are really shallow. So some 150-200 is enough. But yeah check flop and go from there.
