    Default QQ on button vs. 3xbb raise and many callers

    Turn is an obvious fold, just want to know what everyone thinks of my PF and flop play.

    No reads/stats of a hand sample big enough worth mentioning since this was my first experiment at 5NL.
    (Side note: 5NL was extremely tight compared to 2NL, it almost wasn't even fun. Anyone else have similar experiences?)

    PF: UTG is pretty much all that I was worried about b/c if MP1/2 had KK+, AK than they're most likely going to reraise. I put UTG on any pocket pair, AJ+, KQs. I reraised to level the playing field, which proved to be an utter failure lol, and also see where I was at w/r/t UTG raiser.

    Flop: Checked around to me. I figured no one hit since AJ is in everyones range and they're probably always going to bet with that - same thing for KJ. Someone could have QJ and checked out of fear of their kicker but 1. I already have two queens and 2. Not even sure if most players at these stakes are that sensitive to kicker trouble. Any sets are obv betting.

    I bet b/c 1. I was pretty sure I had the best hand and 2. To charge for any flush draws.


    Comments?
    Maybe raise slightly larger PF?
