While I was watching HSP4 at a friends house (and watching the 72 mania unfold), I was playing 10NLHU with him for fun. Still, we were taking the game seriously because we always want to crush each other at poker.

Villian is sort of a TAG who switches up to LAG every now and then. Most often when he bets, he means it, though he is capable of making a move. We had just played a Deepstack HU tournament style PLO, PLO8, NLHE rotation game and he tried a sick bluff on me after about the 4th level by raising preflop with 45o and 5bet shoving a Ax 3h 7h board. I had AJhh though tongue.gif.

Anyway, the hand.

Hero is Button with ~11.50
Villian is BB with ~8.50

Hero is dealt Q icon_suit_spade.gif , 10 icon_suit_spade.gif

Hero raises to 0.30
Villian instantly says raise and makes it $1.
Hero calls.

Pot: $2
Flop: A icon_suit_diamond.gif Q icon_suit_club.gif 6 icon_suit_diamond.gif

Villian counts out a bet and makes it $1.65.
At this point I'm really not sure where I'm at but the weird bet confuses me. He could have pretty much 88-AA, AJ+ and maybe even be cbetting a solid queen (QJ or KQ). There is also the rather small chance that he's blowing up on me again, but I would doubt it after he already has once.

Hero calls.

Pot: $5.3
Turn: Q icon_suit_diamond.gif

Villian shoves.
It's $5.85 back to the hero?

He's smart enough to know I could have a Queen or even a flush here, for that matter he could have KQ or QJs or a flush. There is also the small chance he could have flopped a boat or top two and just be hoping I have a big piece of it. Am I always calling this?

easy instacall

Yea, i think you have to call. You were going with that your Q was good on the flop and it doesnt seem like a flush draw. I think you call.

What hands would you say that the villian does this with that makes this an instacall?

AxKd, Any diamond if he thinks you will fold your ace and give him credit for the Q. I don't play much (any) heads up, but I snap call this.
