    Default QQ facing reraise and cbet

    ----------------
    EDIT: Sorry accidentally posted this to Strategy section instead of hand history. Can I get it moved? Sorry for the inconvenience.
    -----------------

    2 move questions, preflop and postflop:

    Villain is 36/17 - only 35 hands

    Villain $35.20
    Hero $22

    > PACOBAD posted small blind ($0.10)
    > GAMBULL posted big blind ($0.20)
    > jl2003 is waiting for the big blind to play
    > Game # 1,125,897,761 starting.
    > Dealing Hole Cards(Qs Qh )
    > tittyslice folded
    > budfather folded
    > kidsparkle folded

    > ezduzit folded
    > Scrimmage raised for $0.70
    > TitanNSaxon raised for $2
    > PACOBAD folded

    Has villain been 3betting a bunch? Usually big re-raises are AA/KK/AK. You don't have odds to set-hunt so you should raise or fold I think. On the flop I think I'd call and see a turn.
    Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

    In a previous hand he 3betted with KK. He also simply open raised AQs. Not much else I have on him though.

    i call preflop so long as you think or have seen opp 3bet Ak preflop. If you havent just dump QQ, if you have call and i think this is a flop i c/c and lead the turn folding if opp wants to play for stacks.

    call/raise flop. call flop. bet turn.

    miffed do you not think that betting the flop is a good idea?

    you lead opp pushes all in with AK. How do you know to call?

    C/c lead looks scary to opp it also prevents us from playing a big pot before we are ready, or if we dont want to. Any c/r'ing on the flop or leading pretty much commits us to stacking off on a later street.

    I think miffed's advice is good. Don't mind a flop c/r either, fold to a re-raise. Costs about the same as leading the turn and might have a tiny bit more fold equity at these stakes.

    i dont mind the c/r with KK here if we dont 3bet preflop becuase stacking off with KK versus AA if passivly played preflop is fine IMO. Doing so with QQ when opps reraising range is AA/KK/AK (perhaps also QQ) means we only actually beat 1 in 3 hands at best macking stacking off dangerous versus any random player we play. Its not like a lot of 20nl players reraise with JJ/QQ a lot or for that matter AK.
