Re: Overpair Sandwich
I'm not sure what the right answer is, but here is what I am thinking
On this board, JJ is better than QQ because it gives you the gutshot draw, so you have 4-6 outs. Agreed BB probably has you beat but can you see the turn and draw profitably? i.e. does button possibly have two [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]s (are 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] good)?
Black QQ against these tighties, I'd donk the flop and fold if it gets 3bet, since you then have 1-2 outs.
With KK I'd have to go ballistic on the flop, and get to showdown cheap/fold if things blow up on the turn with both opponents still in.
AA, play fast on the flop & it is probably fated to showdown but there may be an inflection point later on where it's obvious you're dead.
