QQ facing heat preflop FT 25k
 

I'm new to the table. Play has been pretty standard - haven't developed an image either way. Anyway, I'm curious about preflop and postflop, but we'll start with pre...

looks like it could be a squeeze. i would flat and push any non A or K flop

Re: QQ facing heat preflop FT 25k
 

I decided to just call (didn't think there was much value in pushing... AA or KK calls and a lot of worse hands fold...). maxsib makes the call. 3 to the flop...

The flop is JT7 w/ 2 diamonds. I check, maxsib checks, and Reppin bets 1500 (leaving himself 900). Action is to me. AA, KK, JJ, TT are winning. If he is semi bluffing with AK, AQ, or a draw I think he just pushes. I think hands like 88 or 99 give up at this point. I felt like I was only beating AJ or a bluff. I have 3,000 chips if I fold at 60/120, but there is a lot of money in the pot.

I would push. I think that your range is ahead of his.

i would open shove the flop the pot doubles your stack and it will be hard to put you on QQ

What's his range?

Re: QQ facing heat preflop FT 25k
 

Keep in mind I was utg +1... I think that narrows his range significantly

you really think that 3bettor is opening that light against an utg1 raise and call?

Re: QQ facing heat preflop FT 25k
 

Looks like either
A. a guy with KK/AA, thinking he is very smart by tiny raising to encourage action

or

B. A guy attempting a squeeze who has no idea what he's doing.

Either way you have QQ and you're all in.
