hah i see villan is posting here.

i dont think i can fold QQ in a blind battle. unless villan is tight, i prob look for some way to get it in. what do you think about calling/calling shove on flop?

yeah he just posted three or four hands. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

anyway, i typically felt QQ in BvB situations. whether or not i wait for the flop is opponent dependent.

his preflop 4-bet would make me really uncomfortable though if he had not done that yet.

I think this is a pretty clear push/call, depending on your flavor of choice.

I got stacked like this today when the guy flipped over AA (but this guy 4-bet a bit) against my QQ. God poker is fun!

I'm not sure what he would do with wiffed big aces here, but a lot of people will give up so I pushed. I do not like the range I would be up against when calling a flop push.

I think big ace is pretty likely hand here. I do not really like push when you have position and good amount of money behind. Call raise.

Be prepared to put all the money in every flop not containing A or K. Fold every flop containing A or K if he makes continuation bet. If flop contains A or K and he checks you can bet small probe-sized bet(like 30 % of the pot). He will check-raise if he has you beat.
