QQ - How many people have issues with this hand?

I have had like over half of my QQ hands go bad over the past several weeks. As for example I floped trips with a Ace on the flop, push on the flop, get a fish to call me, and a another Ace pops up on the river as he holds some stupid thing like A3o. AA & KK I have no issues, as well as JJ, but QQ has been my problem hand. Anyone else have simular issues?

Sup, it's 2006. Goal sounds reasonable.

Sorry, I had to edit it. Noticed I put wrong year and somehow it posted twice. New topic here instead.

Erm. So you're getting bad beaten?

I say oh well. Suck it up and keep playing.

I win consistantly with QQ, but its still my worst pair.

I get better all the time. Just remember to play it more like JJ than KK and you'll be fine.

I tried to recreate the situation:

You: Qc Qh
Him: Ac 3h

Flop: Ad 6s Qd

Here your opponent has a whopping 1.30% to beat you. The reason is that even if he gets an A on the river, without a 3 or 6 on the turn he's still beat by your boat. When you're the 98.7% favorite, it's pretty safe to say you did the right thing and got a bad beat

If we change the flop to already give him that pair;

Flop: Ad 3s Qd

Here you're still ahead with 91.4% to take it home. QQ really is fine, lol..

The times you have to be careful are after a preflop raise and reraise when the flop comes down

JT3

I know you have an overpair, but really what can you beat that is getting its stack in?
This used to cause me quite alot of problems until I really thought about it.

It's my 3rd best hand apparently (according to PT). Oddly enough, behind KK and AA!!!

Haha mine too ... funny what probablility will do over time !!

we don't all play QQ perfectly like you guys.

Looking at by Win % it's tied in 7th with AQs (71.5%). But by BB/Hand, it's like 24th (1.25 bb/Hand). I feel like the broads are robbing me of my money.
