Re: 2/4, QTs SB defence
[ QUOTE ]
Muck that cheese preflop, double so against an opponent who's going to put you to the test postflop. Be honest with yourself; do you really think that you will show a profit by 3-betting QTs OOP or are you 3-betting because you know he's "stealing" and you don't want him to get away with it. The latter is a natural human reaction and happens to all of us. Pick a better spot IMHO.

I disagree strongly with the above. Without stoving it, I imagine QTs does well vs. this guys range, which, as described, is immense. Not to mention the dead money of the BB folding, and the fact that villain is spewtarded postflop. Yes, we're OOP, but that's not so terrible against a villain who will be our hands for us.
Maybe it's a leak of mine, but I'm hard-pressed to think of a single reg in the PS 2/4 that I would not 3-bet QTs from the SB vs. a button steal - I feel that I either get fold equity from the 3-bet, or know that they will overplay post flop enough to make up for any -EQ my hand has hot and cold.
