Who calls this giant push?

Me, pay off the QQ if he has it, but I feel you're winning/tieing this more often than not.

Say you lose $1 to rake every time you tie the hand, you only have to win it 1 out of 40 times to make the hand profitable, and sometime somebody will have a poorly played AQ/KQ there.

Yeah you're right. I didn't even think that it only had to be a win for me 1/40 times. I paid off 44 here by the way, heh.

Dude played QQ like that? WTF?

Add this guy to your buddy list, he has no clue what he's doing...unless he somehow works for the poker site you were playing for and he knew his bigger boat would fill up on the river. :)

At a full table I'm more inclined to lay this down.
