    Default 11$STT 100/200 QQ vs min raise?

    Villian is 18/12, and to be honest it kind of stinks like a somebody call me bet. I'm shoving if im playing but can we fold even if it stinks?

    Fist pump shove over. Why would you ever think about folding here? Do you think he's only ever raising with AA and KK?

    cuz it was KK >.< and thats got me a few more times over the last few days that stupid monster min raise. it just stinks so bad and the last few times i smelled right. but sh!t, guess the last few times dont make up for the majority....

    Instant shove for me. You just got unlucky it was KK, your M is ~5 and you get QQ handed to you, don't you ever think about folding there to a (min) raise.

    Also QQ is very strong against his range { 77+, A9s+, KTs+, QTs+, JTs, ATo+, KJo+ } 33.173%

    { QQ } 66.827%

    The fact that he min raised is his problem/leak, it will mess him up more than it will to you.

    This is a good example of why being results oriented is bad. You need to be thinking about the range that he would minraise with rather than just the specific hand he had. Just because he had AA or KK this time doesn't mean that there aren't a whole lot of other hands that you crush that he would play the same.

    Would you have posted this hand if you spiked a Q on the board?
