Re: NL25 QQ hand
I'd play this exactly the same way. I'm not a fan of 4betting this preflop as we're pretty much only getting called by hands that beat us and maybe AK. I'm also not keen on going AI preflop against an unknown with this hand. Checking the flop lets AK and JJ take a stab (which is good for you) and keeps the pot under control. Checking the turn is good since AK just moved ahead of you, and realistically, you now beat nothing except for JJ (AQ seems unlikely, especially since we hold 2 Q's). I doubt we're getting any value on the river from JJ, and we're probably not folding out AA, so I check here as well. On both turn and river, I think I'd fold to any bet.
