Default Re: NL 25 QQ vs a set?? again?

Why did you raise the second hand if you were not insta-calling? The first on is ok, you need to protect your hand and one of them might come along with top pair or a gut shot or whatever. But the second hand, to put in 40 bb to "find out where you are at" seems like a fantastically bad idea vs this guy. Iīm not a big fan of folding overpairs, but let us say I hit raise accidentally and villain shoved, I would actually want to see him overplay some marginal one pair hand before I call. But donīt raise the second hand.

Edit: He is not playing mind games with you. He is not thinking "I showed a set last time so now he canīt call, hehe". He shoves a hand he thinks is a good hand to shove in this spot. What that hand is varies from player to player, but we have a read here that says he plays his good hands fast and he might be vaguely familiar with hand values.
