Default Re: 5/10 QQ fold on turn

I too don't like this line, but I don't think MP's raise on the turn means he has us beat. Too often I come across players raising donk bets just because they are assuming you are trying to steal the pot--AJ and mid-pocket pairs are still likely holdings. A read is important, without one I call down.

I don't like a flop 3-bet either because you might be folding out hands you beat on the turn. Call the raise, c/c the turn, and consider b/f the river. We still have a very strong hand HU and we want to see a showdown, not save a single bet.
