Would you EVER go broke on this flop with Qeens? Bet/Fold is the best solution here, am I right?

If he has an Ace, he isn't getting the FD, and if he has a spade, it isn't the Ace.

I would raise to 320 preflop, being 3+1, and I can see going broke on this flop.

Alternatively, go broke on any turn, particularly a spade. But the flop will be fine I think. You have most likely the best flush draw. Otherwise, he needs to have A?K :spade:, which isn't ususally limp/calling preflop.


i like a check behind on this flop. this gives him an opportunity to bluff catch him if he wants to donk the turn. it also gives us some pot control where an Ax hand is very likely in his range.

+ we have the Qs as a redraw.

being in position in this pot is very handy... in every pot actually.

ps. i make it 280 pre
