Default Re: QQ UTG First Hand (16 Turbo)

Dude, you accomplish two things by making a good (60-80) sized raise, rather than a retarded one (1500):

a) You are much more likely to stack hands that will make weak overpairs or top pairs, such as A9/88/QJ etc

b) You won't have to go broke against KK+

It's really really really clear-cut.

The chances of me losing to KK or AA are pretty low. The chances of me getting called by JJ/TT/99/AQ/AJ off set that. There's a possibility I get called by a lower pp as I did in this case. The chances of me getting my whole stack in ahead of the types of hands you listed are low and winning a small pot just doesn't help me that much. But I see your point too, I won't argue anymore, don't need to be an ass about it though
