I'm just pushing over a reraise preflop against an unknown.

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

Yeah, especially a donktastic minraise.
Also, I think you can make your pfr:s 3bb.

yeah early in these im fairly happy to get it in with QQ vs an unkown for the times he does have AA or KK people will show crazier [censored] a lot more often like AK AQ JJ and lower, push is fine

I wouldnt be so thrilled to call the all in on the end, but I still would at this stakes.

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

No you can't get away from this, but just pushing his first re raise is the right play at these levels I would think.

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

I really don't like the BB's first reraise amount. That coupled with his fourth raise screams of a monster in the hole.

Having said that, gotta push the fist time around. Or if you don't, re-reraise smaller amount where you'd be more comfortable laying it down.

We are NOT four bet / folding. lol

I kno [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] lol

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

since youre going all in anyways, it doesnt matter a ton, but yea i agree that id generally just shove over that gaytastic minraise

Re: Another $16 QQ early

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

Thanks for the tips.

ps, turned over AA ftw

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

Although I never fold, I think that if you went over every stars hand in the last year at 16 buyin that went standard raise from EP in first level followed by minraise from the blinds QQ would be a small loser to play for stacks.

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

t90-100 1st time. Shove over the raise, yes

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

I like the 4x bet from your position in early levels. As played I would just move all in after his minraise. It does look a lot like he has AA after he puts in the 4th raise, but what you gonna do? This is a 16 and you gotta call here.

Re: Another $16 QQ early
 

After your 4xBB raise from early position his re-raise suggests a hand but as it was only a minimum raise I would have thought perhaps AK. As such I don't want all the chips in on a coin flip so I would be calling hoping for a good flop. You got that and now I would shove hoping he lays down. It wouldn't have helped you in this case as he has AA but hey you can't win them all.

If an A or K shows on the flop you could have got away from it.

You mentioned you were on a downswing - irrelevant and don't let that affect you making correct decisions otherwise you are just playing on tilt.

QQ looks wonderful pre flop but don't let the ladies deceive you - I play them more like JJ rather than KK.

I like low risk too, but rooting for a fold when you're a 3 to 1 favourite is too much, so I FdYP.
