3/6 PP 6-Max Sorry no Converter

I'm confused with this hand. I'm not really sure if my line is correct.

BB is huge donkey. Calls down with any pair/ace high, won't fold preflop for any amount of bets.

UTG is TAG. Don't remember PT stats but TAG.
I have 2 black Queens on button

PF: UTG raises, Hero 3-bets, BB cold-calls2, UTG calls.

Flop: K 2 8 rainbow

BB checks, UTG bets, I call, BB calls.

Is this auto-raise here? I call here with intention of raising turn.

Turn: 3 (pairs one suit on board)

BB checks, UTG bets, I raise, BB folds, UTG calls.

I raise with intention of taking free showdown.

River: Blank 2

UTG checks, I check

Is this ok, or is this value bet time?


How is my line on this hand?

I think I play this one : Call, Call, Call. (I know, pretty passive, eh?)

This seems like a standard WA/WB scenario. UTG might have a hand like J-J, 10-10, 9-9, even A-Q, and is betting the flop for info. Calling down does three things for you, IMHO:

1. It keeps the TAG betting with worse hand.

2. By just calling, you also have a better chance of keeping fishy in the hand with a likely worse hand.

3. You lose the minimum when either of them have a King.

If you raise the turn, you probably have to fold to a three-bet, and I think your Queens may be good often enough for that to be a -EV play.

Me too.

I'd be more inclined to raise the flop with a hand like JJ/TT, since there are more cards that can hurt you on the turn.

With queens, I would play it pretty passively, so I would call it down I think.
Jacks down to 9's, I would be more aggressive. 8)
