Decent player, nothing out of line, probably a regular

Preflop: I could 4 bet but if he calls, could be an awkward spot. He's showing alot of strength and first time he 3 bet me.

Flop: Good flop, behind everything that will call my push on the flop. So call and reevaluate.

Turn: If Im beat, I am beat, this is a good card, for both of us. Should I lead here? If he pushes, I am beating nothing again, so try to get value from QQ type hands.

River: I dont want him checking behind with hands that I beat or should I be check/folding since he's not likely to bet anything I beat and will want a showdown with QQ. My thoughts: he might make a crying call. After his min raise, I cant fold?

Checkraise the flop + call shove.

What a strange hand.

Your probably beat on the river. Your getting 80 to 207 to call so 1 - 2.4, so you need to be more then 71% sure that your beat to call.

Thats a tough fold. Probably an incorrect one to.

4bet shove preflop

I think if you just call his 3-bet here you need to get it all in on that flop. You're pretty much committed when you hit TPTK OOP in a 3-bet pot.

I did consider a fold preflop, but decided to take a flop and go from there. I think this hand was pretty difficult to play.

Turned out he had the only reasonable hand I dont lose to
