I tend to play overpairs very badly. I have 2 doubts in this hand... Should I call or raise after the first bet? After the reraise, I guess I have to fold, right? The first bettor was blufiing a lot, but the reraiser had just played a few hands.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

SB ($4.15)
BB ($4.40)
UTG ($9.40)
MP ($12.40)
Hero ($10.70)
Button ($6.10)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q, Q.
UTG calls $0.10, MP raises to $0.2, Hero raises to $0.7, 3 folds, UTG calls $0.60, MP calls $0.50.

Flop: ($2.25) 7, 7, 9 (3 players)
UTG checks, MP bets $2.1, Hero calls $2.10, UTG raises to $8.7, MP folds,

Hero??

Based on your read on the re-raiser, I fold, but VERY grudgingly and only because of my read. you are not beat by KK or AA, as you would have been re-raised. You are beat by 99, a hand containing a 7, or a suited club hand such as K9, or A9 (but I hardly think people at this limit realize those 2 are winning here against your overpair).

problem is lets figure the hands you do beat that would make might make this move: jj and 1010. the other is an unsuited hand with a 9, but read on villian says no here.

maybe its jj or 1010, but based on read on villian there are more hands that beat you theoretically that make this move than hands that dont.

Thanks for the answers. In the actual hand I folded and the reraiser showed us 75s...

Tough hand. I'm usually raising the flop bet after a pre-flop re-raise, to rep AA/KK. Then if anyone 3-bets you can shut it down. I don't hate the call though. I think you have to fold to the UTG c/r. I'd be shocked if he doesn't have trips or a boat here.

This particular hand, The limp-call on a massive raise from a tight player tends to indicate a small to middle pp. Following with a check-reraise all in should sound an alarm. At best, you folded to a boat, 9s over, at worst, AA or KK if he's one of those guys. That's my take on the hand, for what it's worth. Probably a good fold if your read was right.
