I was very, VERY, close to a call. To be honest I thought I would be left with too few chips if I was wrong and had enough chips back to utilise going forward.
Do you call or fold?

I have played a couple more hands with this guy now and he’s been exposed as a maniac. So knowing what I do now I would definitely have called.
I got revenge just now by making a big call with second pair on his turn over-shove. He had bottom pair and I got back the 40 bb that I had recently lost with a KK vs TT suckout.

i dont think that open Q6s pre ante MP is showing a lot of profit in the long run.
i prolly check back flop with such an aggressive villain as described.
what do you think he is c/r river you beat?

If you were OOP and bet and he shvoed(aka he checekd back turn), I think you cna fold. Since he is OOP and had to cehck river, I dont thnik he has any(read:many) credible flushes in his range. 35 is a possiblity though. I still think we should call.
We have to call about 2500 into 7200 or so(rough math), so we dont have to be right all that often, and your line looks weak enough to where bluffs are possible for him.

As played I think we have to call. Most people in $30 f.os are not good enough to check/shove a flush there on that river. Would not be opening that preante though. Q9s/Q10s yes.

Thanks for the feedback guys.
I definitely wouldn’t open in this spot as standard. I can’t remember the exact reason now but it may have been because I had been card dead and didn’t want a nitty image, I’m not exactly sure. (It could also have been watching too many of Casey’s vids and mis-applying them lol.
I wasn’t sure what he had but I was leaning more toward A2 or A4 than a flush or straight. But any of those hands beat me and I figured the only hands we beat are complete bluffs with air (that also floated the flop) or if he is overplaying an Ax hand that he floated the flop with.
Looking at this hand again, even with the hindsight of him being a maniac, I actually think it’s a fold. There are too many hands that beat us and too few that we beat. I cannot see him playing a bluff this way so it’s only Ax hands that floated the flop that we beat imo.
I’m here to learn though so would like to know what you think about my logic and if it is flawed.
PS. I actually went on to win this tourney for my biggest ever score, just days after joining TPE! :)) So would like to thank all the instructors for their great vids, even if I played this individual hand poorly and against their advice.

It sucks hearing about so much MTT success when in these continually run thousnds of chips below EV. I make so many deep runs but hardly ever win the flips that matter with the best hand or not. Thats why i play cash games because skill shows itself a lot quicker. Sorry for the tangent. As for the hand in a vacume i am not calling this river hardly ever. People rarely check raise bluff the river even maniacs and the players that can Eg myself are not actully maniacs at all. People dont have sicko bluff ranges at this level. You cap your range by checking back the turn which makes yourself open to this play. But since we are not dealing with a very good player a population read will tell us that peoples typical range in this spot is 3,5 and flushes.
