[SH NL100]QQ on drawy flop, 160BB deep

[Boiterbunt]

I played this hand today vs. a LAGgy (32/25/3) multitabling regular who I clinched with quite a lot. Two hands ago I won quite a big pot of him when I called his 3-bet in position with KK and took it down on the turn.

I really don't have a clue how to go from here vs. him.

I think that if you're willing to do anything other than fold here, it's with the intention of going all in. Are you willing to felt your overpair against this guy?

nl noob grunch

deep stacks, OOP, overpair on a drawy board, aggressive opponent -- these are the components of my nl nightmares.

our hand is too strong to fold against this opponent. he could easily be making this raise with top pair, a variety of flush/straight/combo draws, or nothing. (of course, he could also have a set, two pair, or a bigger overpair.)

calling creates a pot of ~$70 and leaves us with ~$200 (~3x pot) vs villain's ~$125 (~2x pot).

3betting commits our stack with no further information about villain's hand.

i think i prefer a stop-n-go here (a play i never use in LHE). if a favorable card comes off, we can donk and see what happens. if something brutal comes off (say the T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]) we can get away from our hand cheaply.

I think call and donk safe turn is best action.
