I don't have a HH or anything, but while playing HORSE, thought about this situation:

6th Street:

Skeeter Jd-Jh in the hole Board: 9s-10d-Jc-6d
Opponent: Showing Qd-4c-Qh-Qs

We'll asssume I completed and was called on 3rd. I bet on 4th and was called. I bet on 5th and was called. Opponent bets on 6th. Is there ever a time where I could call here, or should I muck. Also, should I call if I put my opponent on strictly trips and no boat?

even if you don't believe he's filled up, you still have to improve to win the hand. also if your opponent has not filled up by 6th then he has a chance to fill up on the river and still have the higher hand than you. i think its a -EV play to call a bet on 6th in this spot. you will be losing money every time you fail to make your hand, and even more when your opponent makes a bigger hand.

Not even a question here IMHO, unfortunate but a fold for sure.

If you know for certain he has only trips, the pot is most likely big enough to warrant a call. As for this particular situation with the action you described, it doesn't make sense because he would have first action on all rounds of betting, and I don't see him checking on 5th when he hits queens showing and you don't have anything about a jack showing.

i would be very, very ,very tempted to call if the 9 6 and 10 were completey live, but again, your drawing with one card to come which may improve your hand but still, it could of improved his too , and you dont really want to be in that postion. he may have also hit a boat, f*** knows if he did or not. so all in all its not worth the risk Laughing

You need to hit and he has to miss even if you hit your hand you will still lose asmall precentage of that time you are less than 20% to win the had with all our outs live witch isnt likely given that j and 10 or worse a pair are likley down cards for your opponent to have with a Q up.
