Fold QQ to a 4bet in the Sunday Million?
 

Reposting this in the HSMTT...

I really really didn't want to fold this hand but in the end, I was convinced it was the right move as I'd only had 600 chips invested in the pot. My assumption was that a 4bet is 99.5% going to be AA/KK. Is my assumption right?

I don't think the 4-bet is always AA/KK, and I wouldn't fold QQ here.

Re: Fold QQ to a 4bet in the Sunday Million?
 

btn raise is HUGE relative to your raise. The reason question is whether BB is trying to resteal or not. I think that I can find a fold here though b/c they can easily have you dominated. I mean you are hoping for AK/AK or AK/JJ mebbe JJ/TT. But there is much bad play in teh sunday mill. I dont think either play is wrong.

Re: Fold QQ to a 4bet in the Sunday Million?
 

I think folding is the right play because as mentioned the 4bet is aa,kk,ak a majority of the time.

i think big reason why its a fold is its a cold 4bet for half of BB stack with heavily weights their range toward KK/AA. and no i dont give a random sunday million donk credit for a cold 4bet bluff

Re: Fold QQ to a 4bet in the Sunday Million?
 

Would anyone care to discuss what a typical 4bet range is? I always thought AA, KK but the varying responses in here would have me think otherwise.

One person said AK, when I think about it, I can't imagine 4betting with a drawing hand but I suppose alot of people will push with AK without 4 betting. Is there really any significance to the fact that it's a 4 bet here? There's not alot of times when people are deepstacked enough to 4bet, usually having to push after a 3bet.

If you are late for golf, call.

If this is your only tournament for the night, fold.

I would fold here 80% of the time though.

I think this fold, especially given positions, is standard.
