 No read. I'm guessing that the responses will "fold without a read"... just checking. The 5x preflop is fishy...

- HERO sitting in seat 1 with $206.00
- VILLAIN sitting in seat 2 with $220.20
- czplaya sitting in seat 3 with $214.45
- Hzon sitting in seat 4 with $200.00
- jhgk sitting in seat 5 with $201.30 [Dealer]
- ritziz sitting in seat 6 with $435.20

ritziz posted the small blind - $1.00
HERO posted the big blind - $2.00
** Dealing card to Henitruk: Queen of Diamonds, Queen of Clubs
VILLAIN raised - $10.00
czplaya called - $10.00
Hzon folded
jhgk folded
ritziz folded
HERO raised - $42.00
VILLAIN went all-in - $210.20
czplaya folded
HERO...

 What normally are the pushing hands all in preflop? Outside of the idiots being over-aggressive, its JJ-AA. I have been folding this preflop as I'm more likely behind than ahead.

Although, are you priced in to call? $160 to call to win a $230 pot, You're looking at almost 1.5/1, I think I still lay this down.

I hate this spot, but all the times I've called vs. a full stacl this has been AA/KK. I fold vs. unknown, but it can be an easy call with some sort of read or a really crazy table image.

KK vs unknown I go
QQ vs unknown I don't

This has served me well.

Advice valid all the way through 25NL
