Default FT 25NL 6 max - QQ facing 4 bet preflop. Felt it or fold?

I dunno if I should count the min raise as a real raise but... what does he raise over a 10xBB raise?

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $13.60
UTG+1: $42.30
CO: $16.80
Hero: $23.65
SB: $19
BB: $40.45

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $0.5</font>, UTG+1 calls, CO folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $2.5</font>, SB folds, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises to $7</font>, 2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero WTF??? </font>

Do I give him credit for AA or KK here? Or should I just assume he's a 25NL donk?

What is his range for making a huge raise like this? AKo, AKs, JJ+? I'm an underdog against this range right?

EDIT: On a sidenote does anyone know if poker stove evaluates hands as a equal percentage of likelyhood? And if so how do you set it up so that some hands are more likely than others?

it's not a minraise 4 bet. He raised 2.25 times my raise.

Reread the action here. BB is 4betting, not UTG.

how is that superior to just shoving preflop? The best hand that has an ace or king in them, is AK itself, and I'm a favorite against that hand. it's not like AA or KK is folding to a check/raise move in or an open shove on any flop. So why not get it in now?

becuase you are 50 50 against ak when he sees all 5 cards. seeing a flop if we know he has ak he will only hit a pair 1/3 of the time and probably not call your all in push. we dont need to be coin flipping for stacks preflop

[/ QUOTE ]

To set some hands as more likely than others you can either use only suited or unsuited for hands like AK, i.e. if you think there is a ~25% chance he will reraise with AK preflop, put in his range as QQ+, AKs instead of QQ+, AKo, AKs.

You can also put in dead cards, which will help weight the Baysian analysis.
