you can fold this preflop, QTs is not such a great hand
UTG+1 at $25nl 6max I'd probably fold QTs 100% of the time
you also shouldn't be betting so much on the flop.
you need to have a standardized continuation bet, and it's best for that to be around 2/3rd to 3/4ths of the pot size. you get close to the same fold equity with that size bet as you would with an exact pot-size bet, but when you bet slightly less than the pot you can still profit off it even if it gets contested more than half the time, it's just kind of the sweet-spot for continuation bets
and obviously when you actually catch a decent flop (like this one) you should be betting exactly as much as you would be betting if you hadn't caught that flop (again, not pot-size, 2/3 to 3/4)
it's been so long since I've played $25NL but I can tell you bottom two pair is rarely a stack-worthy hand at those limits. the people there play so loose and passive that you're easily afforded the right to wait for better hands, so you might as well fold this after he raises your c-bet
the only circumstance where I think bottom two-pair is a stack-worthy (by that I mean, worth risking a whole buy-in for) hand, is when you hold something like 87s and the flop comes A87. this is a stack-worthy flop because at these limits you're easily getting paid off by AK, AQ, AJ, and AT
but when you're holding QT on a QTK flop, you're really not a big favorite against much of anything. there are many commonly-played hole cards that dominate you, and even if you're ahead, it's not by much. definitely not stack-worthy at $25NL |
