    Default To 4bet or to not 4bet

    BTN is 27/25/17 (yeah 17) over 104 hands (not all this session)
    BB is 27/11 over 40 or so hands all this session (Irish - and i have a feeling a little more loose/passive than he is showing (ie addicted to broadways pre)

    The only hand I can see BB holding that worries me is QQ - KK/AA/AK i feel he would shove/4bet pre. i have no 3bet+ pot stats for BTN, but his fold to 3bet so far is 0. He may also see QQ as the nuts preflop too - so that could even be heavily discounted.

    As BTNs range is wide - hes clearly 3 betting a lot from position (apprecaite its a small sample) is 4 betting the best play?

    I dont like turning a strong hand against aggression and a likely donk into a set mining hand - but i also wont like 50% of flops against their ranges


    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (8 handed) - PokerStars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Hero (CO) ($10)
    Button ($10.91)
    SB ($3.69)
    BB ($10.19)
    UTG ($10)
    UTG+1 ($4.49)
    MP1 ($9.25)
    MP2 ($12.94)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with J, J
    4 folds, Hero bets $0.30, Button raises to $0.80, 1 fold, BB calls $0.70, Hero ????
