A couple of QQ hands
 
I'm having a good session at the time and am up a bunch of buy ins. Maybe didn't want to blow it and stack off to a couple players who seemed at least decent. Both hands happened near each other, like within 50 hands. Too nitty?

I really felt this guy had AA, KK JJ or TT. Decided I beat one hand and folded

And this seems like either a set or Ax of hearts to me. I'm only a small fav over the Ax and obv huge dog to set so decided to just fold.

Re: A couple of QQ hands
 
For the first I would reraise preflop. I would probably reraise on the flop given the way you played it.
Unless im mistaken if he has Ax then he only has 7 outs, so you are a big favourite against that.

For the second I think its likely he has something like AT or thinks you missed the flop completely. Either way, I doubt with a set he would overbet this much, so I would call this.

However Im pretty new to poker and even newer to posting here, so wait for some better advice [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

On the first hand...Im raising the turn.
On the second hand, it would depend on the player..there are some I would, and some I wouldnt. The cards dont necessarily matter here.

Re: A couple of QQ hands
 
On the first hand, I would rr 3 bets to around $5.5 or so. If he come back over the top you can pretty much narrowed his range to AA or KK, even QQ (very unlikely but possible.) I doubt he would come back with JJ or TT but may call your rr with those. He would also call with AK. On the flop with such a dry board, I would rr his bet. That maybe enough to force out hands like AK, JJ-88. If he calls you can always c/f the turn if he makes a large bet.

On the second hand, without knowing villan, it's hard to figure out what he has. He can have AA-TT, or a nut FD. With the latter, he figures he can represent AA/KK while still have outs to beat you. But floding here without knowing villan is probably prudent.
