10NL QQ

Wasn't too sure about this!

Preflop - Get a few callers, not great going multiway of course. PP's, SC's & Small broadways all part of their range

Flop - Not bad! Still have an overpair. Lots of draws out there that I have to protect against. 5x beats me, but still have to go for value.

Turn - Bad! Flush gets there, 67 gets there, 89 / 88 / 5x beats me. CO called my cbet on the flop into 3 players with 2 players left to act behind so I definitely expect him to have hit this pretty hard. Too weak to check fold? Should I have called his small sizing? There are some hands like 66, 77, TT & JJ that I can still get value from... But with no heart in my hand, I didn't feel comfortable continuing.

Looks like a reasonable and disciplined fold to me. I wouldn't be overly concerned about 5x as I'm not sure how often villain will be flat calling a 5 on the flop here but there's obviously an absolute ton of flushes that villain will play this way. It really sucks that he has gone this small and in play I might be tempted to call given the price we are getting but I cannot think of many hands where we are ahead of that play this way.

With 98s and worse overpairs making sense maybe betting less than half pot for thin value works, making it less likely that you'll face a bet if you check the river, assuming he won't bluff any showdown value. It does feel a bit weak checking to give up at this point.

On paired boards people won't always draw to straights and flushes too, making it more likely that we still have the best hand.
