UTG+1 ($32.53)
UTG+2 ($32.70)
MP1 ($7.87)
MP2 ($26.50)
MP3 ($5)
CO ($10.20)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q, Q. SB posts a blind of $0.10. MP3 posts a blind of $0.25.
2 folds, MP1 raises to $0.5, MP2 raises to $1, 4 folds, Hero raises to $2.75, 1 fold, MP2 calls $2.

Turn: ($14.85) J (3 players)

Yeah tell me about it... on party QQ is by FAR my biggest losing hand. Like 4 buy ins in the red over 13k hands.

a500lbgrorilla - I actually put him on the OP when he called preflop but I figured a 3-bet c/r on the flop would cost the same as betting the two streets, and I at least have a chance he's sitting on AK and folds the turn (also giving me the turn to hopefully hit my Q). Sound thinking?

you played this fine.

Im surprised you 'only' lost what you did here, the guy should be losing a stack here if you have AA and he has KK.
