villain is donkey (55/32). We're both deep stacked, and am not sure what this bet meant. Sorry if this is blatantly obvious, but I am really bad at picking when villain is bluffing and when they have a monster.

I lead out here for like $3. If I'm raised or called I shut down.

EDIT: I forgot that he was the PF aggressor. You could just c/f here.

As played I think this is an easy fold. The preflop betting will most likely be AA or KK, sometimes AK or QQ but if you're up against AA or KK you'll have to catch runner runner straight/quads. If it's AK you're a 9-1 underdog.

You are 500BB and this is a horrible flop for QQ. At 500BB, you would have to be careful if you held 66.

If he is an absoulute lunatic, just look for a better spot to get it in.

Easy fold.... 2 overcards to your Q's on the flop and your facing aggression. Can't win w/Q's all the time...

He will beat you here, he is not re raising you preflop for such an amount with JJ or lower. Unless he is a complete maniac off course.
