Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero has 9d Qd

fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to $0.75, SB calls $0.65, fold

Flop: ($1.75, 2 players) 9h 6c Qc

Only got 20 hands on the villain and he has folded every one preflop. Any problem with how I play this hand? Should I bet the turn?

I think readless bet turn is always going to be better.  There are still a lot of hands we can get value from, and we are IP gng to the river which will make our decision more straight forward.

We can fold quite easily if we get raised and win more from hands we beat like other queens, is that your line of thought here? We should also still be ahead of anything we were ahead of OTF also. He can"t really have AA or KK and a 6 is unlikely.

Yea, think we can def b/f turn readless.  Sucks, but cnt really see any better options.  Checking back to induce isn"t going to be as profitable in this spot when there are so many bad rivers.  We can also fold if villain takes a flat turn/jam river line.

We can get value from all Qx hands, and pretty much any pair+club hands.

I"d be betting the turn, I"d call river as played
