    UTG+1 ($9.82)
    MP1 ($5.76)
    MP2 ($4.41)
    CO ($1.93)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with ,
    1 fold, UTG+1 bets $0.40, 1 fold, MP2 calls $0.40, CO raises to $1.93 (All-In), 2 folds

    isnt that a long shot? after my shove i have left to act UTG+1 who is deep and first raiser with 8bb and again MP2 who called 8bb.

    UTG+1 and MP2 are unknows. shouldnt i give them credit for opening/calling 8bb? i am still a beginner , but isnt a raise/calling like that meaning JJ+?
    cause if it does, my QQ is an underdog.

    it's standard to reraise to isolate and since you have only 2.5x behind, that's a shove. i don't know FR ranges, but it sounds like you're giving utg+1 and mp2 too much credit. they should be folding alot of the time and if they're not, you're often getting it in good against them. but they'll fold.

    Stats/reads? Agree, shove.

    hmm.... i did shove, wasnt sure if it was the best way, but i see you're all one unit so it was ok.
    UTG+1 calls AA
    MP2 calls KK
    CO calls 22.... flop, turn blanks, river 2

    feelin' allright
    Since he's all in with that big of a range, it's an insta-shove with QQ. Well, sh*t happens

    What Philly says is true but it would still be pretty nitty to fold QQ there after the crazy half stack shoves. In several hundred thousand hands I've only seen QQ vs KK vs AA like 2 or 3 times. I think you were fated to get stacked there. At least the worst hand won the main pot. Keep the fish coming back!
