Default Re: NL100 QQ in BB ugly action

Your thinking is flawed in that you putting in too much effort to try and stack the villain after being overaggressive up until now and basically setting yourself up for this spot.

Calling is bad because you are OOP and if villain has AK he will more than likely check the flop...you are now letting him see 4 cards for free. (nobody is folding AK to hero preflop so just get it in pre). Don't worry about increasing your equity in the hand...thats just playing weak.

If the flop comes A or K high you wont be getting anymore value from JJ and TT and have a good chance of being bluffed off the best hand. Your theory of shoving if he bets half pot is totally wrong, its a 4 bet pot..if the flop comes A or K high he knows he's going broke so why bet 3/4 pot or something that looks like he;s committing himself to the pot...I bet half pot here almost always. So your idea of pushing over that bet is going to get you into a lot of trouble...Only hands that beat you are calling and you pushing out everything you beat already. This is why calling a 4 bet with QQ oop is baaaaad.

C/f on a JTx flop is also spew, this isnt 6max, you are giving villain too narrow of a range, I absolutely get it in on this flop always.

In summary, given hero's image you dont have to do anything but shove to get villain to call with much worse
