2NL overpair facing huge overpush
 

2NL...

A hand played by my gf. She asked me what to do after this guy pushed, I was a little confused myself. Personally, if this was me in the Hand, I raise to $0.11 preflop, but besides that, is this a call or fold on flop?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (9 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Hero ($3.32)

Button ($3.23)
SB ($4.96)
BB ($8.37)
UTG ($1.42)
UTG+1 ($4.91)
MP1 ($1.24)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls $0.02, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $0.08</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, SB calls $0.07, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls $0.06.

Call

2nl=call all the time here... I see some donk w/ A7o here or a 5Xo semi-bluffing retardedly. If he had an overpair that tops yours, you would more than likely see it pf raised, and if not, he's dumping money.

Easy call

Fist-pump?

Call. Your opponent probably has something that seems nut-like to a 2NLer like A7 or 88 and is already running around the house high-fiving his pets. He'll be confused when he gets back.

Ty all for the advice. Glad to see it's what I thought it was. Anyways, we call, they have a set of 2's, we lose the pot. I'm not posting this because I'm being results oriented. A small percentage of 2NL'ers do play like this (pushing huge with basically the nuts), but I guess not near enough of them to make this a fold...ever.

p.s. - imo you'll hardly ever see a push like this with the nuts on a flop in higher levels. smarter players play smarter...
