I played this hand early in a $650 WSOP satellite. My opponent seemed to quite loose, having already limped K9s pre-flop, overcalled a raise, and paid off two streets on an AKx board. I tried to take him to value town with a pretty sizeable river shove:

Unfortunately, he had 8d 7d, and I made an early exit. I still think it was a good shove, though. Generally even passive players are not going to check a flush on the river here nor play a hand that beats QQ so weakly on earlier streets. So although I don’t know how often worse hands call on the river, I feel like my QQ is generally going to be good on the river with this action.
