There’s really no way to get away from your hand. The only hands I put him on is AQ(depending on table play and images) Q8s-KQs, QTo+, 22-TT or Ax+. You block Q5. Q2 is such a poor starting hand it’s hard to imagine villian playing that hand out of position to a raise. Even though you would’ve lost if I think your river bet could use some tweaking. Remember if he calls there and you do win, which you will a large % of the time, your large bets or over bet range won’t have as many nut type hands. In this situation an overbet or a PSB may be in order if you believe he’s got Qx. There really isn’t that many nut type or made hands he could put you on if he has a Queen. You’d be betting with 9 combos of 22,55,77 and you could only have realistically 12 combos of QJ, KQ and AQ and 2 combos of QTs or Q9s. There’s a ton of hands in your range that didn’t get there. Overbetting is something that can confuse your opponent and when called could pay off. As you can see this would be a moment where I’d be adding to someone else’s stack but it’s going to happen.
