wrong forum, but raise. His bets are fairly weak, and if you somehow are behind, you probably have a good # of outs...except against K10c.

raise, cry when he shoves with a straight...

I would be happy to move it, where does it need to go? Tournament Strat? Short Handed? Sorry first time posting a hand.

a raise is surely in order with your hand...

Fold pre flop.

As played, Shovel, it's unlikely you're terribly behind, and you've got outs if you are. If you're drawing dead gg, jump in another.

Ditto on both of Dr. Zoidberg's comments. I realize you're getting 5-1 to complete the SB, but Q3s is a real trouble hand postflop especially against 2 opponents.

Once the Q hits you are most likely ahead. If he completed his straight I would expect him to slow down, figuring the Q didn't help you much, rather than increase his lead. Those leads look like probe bets - he's hit something and is testing the strength of both of your hands, but he's not confident enough to make larger bets. He's probably paired his J or 9 and is putting you on A-high.
