Default Re: QQ meets allin on turn

You don't need to four-bet preflop necessarily, but you DO need a plan for the rest of the hand.

My plan was that I shouldn't get into "screw-it-mode", instead play poker, therefore I called preflop.

When the flop comes with two tens and in a reraised pot I really didn't think he would fire two barrels without a really strong hand.
He won't put me on a ten and I won't put him on one.
This made me feel that he most likely wanted to make this shove to have me call with 99-JJ, QQ. (Also to protect his hand )

However, if I now must call in this spot even though I am not sure where I stand it's EV is 0, so it shouldn't matter.
This leads to a lower variance play to fold which is my prefered style at micro stakes.
