That's what you want to happen.

Playing for stacks against unknowns with QQ is often a bad idea

should I fourbet? should I always fold to a 5bet like he did? seems like that could be a rule of thumb.

[/ QUOTE ]No way. How are you not a massive favorite over an unknown for your stack with QQ? Just guessing I'd say 65/35 against a random micro opponent.

they come in all different forms, no telling if they are lagtard morons or passive fish, that's why I think this is a fold.

It's not a 50/50 split. You think there are more nits than donks at .05/.1?

Okay, what's an unknown's typical FIVE-BETTING range here? Seriously, what do you think it is? I don't think QQ is ahead of it.

I like the 4 bet especially because hero is OOP and would like to take the pot down. Getting 5-bet is generally a fold for me unless you know your opponent and they are willing to make moves in position.

I see more 25/5s than anything
