GUKPT London. Hero 14k, villain 12k. Hero has been active but shown down little, table is all happy and fun with plenty of banter. Villain is totally unknown quantity, asian young bloke with PKR bb hat indicative of an online qualifier.

Blinds 50/100.

Nik Levi opens for 250 in mp (7k stack). Folded to hero in SB who rr to 850 w  .
Villain (BB) literally turns round and stares me up and down before calling after a pause.
MP folds. HU pot.

Flop brings 

Hero bets 1350. Villain min-raises to 2700 total. Hero calls.

Turn 

Hero check calls 3k.

River  .

Hero check calls 3k.

Analysis on pre and all streets please. Ill give my reasoning after discussion so as not to sway thoughts.

Line seems fine. Though you're only beating QQ on the river.

He has read your soul ldo.  Check fold flop.



I think the whole thing really depends on whether he overplays QQ as it looks like that or AA, so your probably not "losing" anything if he does.

I like how you played it, though you are rarely good by the river. Its a pot odds call.

and if he hits one then you are more or less out of the comp.

Not better to take it there and then? over 6k in the pot.

surely better than losing 10k.

So you're worried about the roughly 8% of the time he gets our stack as opposed to the roughly 92% we get most of his?

not worried about it but not giving him the chance to catch up. am running bad at the mo and everything that can happen to me generally does at the moment. i stull push back on the flop tho.
