Don't fold full house. Yes, his line looks nutted, but u try to be a genius. You're not ;). Call. It's rly that simple in this case.

turn bet is pretty bad. U rep very narrow (KQ) since ur not gonna bet other Qx, u don't have 3x in your range. Whenever u do that, people give u less credit, whether they shud or shudnt

I'd go ahead and check the turn, if we're ahead they don't have too much equity against us and by betting we hardly ever fold out better (Qx is never fold) and not much worse calls.

I don't think I can fold river against an unknown, if they turn out to be a fish they can have tons of 3x in their range, if they are a reg they may be opening a3s from UTG. We're only really worried about be slowplayed by QQ/KK.

I can't find a fold.

Agree with the other comments.

Turn I'm checking and seeing a free river.

I'm not folding the river given how the hand played out. We're at the top of our range here 4s full is the best and only boat we have so we're pretty under-repped. Villain can definitely have QQ/KK but could also have QK, AA, A3 and bluffs

Call flop, chk turn, never folding river is my line, so bet/call it off for me; easy game. Smile

Not a huge amount to add here as I agree with everyones checking the turn statements. The only thing worth noting here though is that by betting turn we can fold out a lot of strong PP's below the Q but I thinkwe have enough showdown value that this is not required.

As played then we are never folding river here.

I would just fold the flop with no turn cards we're happy to see.

If we do call the flop then when he checks to us betting turn and river as a bluff is an option, even without binking the river. But our showdown value may be enough to try and check it down anyway.

Once villain shoves on a board where we can have QQ KQ 33 44 I'm amazed that everybody is blindly saying we can't fold when we beat absolutely nothing that villain goes for value with apart from 43s if he even ever has that. If we're relying on him bluffing to make this call then I would say it won't be often enough.
