Re: NL200 -- Two QQ hands
Hand 1:Given that the SB is a huge LAG, and that your raise looks very much like it could be a squeeze play (I'm giving the SB credit for knowing you are capable of such a move, let me know if you disagree), I would probably play it the same way you did. You're getting great odds on the PF call and the flop call, and still have a chance of recouping money in the side pot should the nitty BB have AA or KK.
Hand 2: His hand seems to me like a high diamond that is trying to give himself good odds to draw via these small blocking bets. That river card is really ugly, but once again you're getting better than 4:1, so I think I would call and cross my fingers that it's Ad Qx or Td Tx rather than AK, KK or AA with a diamond.
