Default QQ in the micro\'s

scraping together the change I left online after cashing out on Black Friday...

UTG and Button have been betting/raising/calling like they enjoy the sound it makes.

UTG+1 is the only player that matters, i have him at about 30/20 and giving him the benefit that he is smart enough to try to get me out of the hand so he can play with the retards by himself.

There is a very good chance that I have the best hand pf.

<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 caps</font>, Hero calls, UTG calls.

Final Pot: 40.20 BB

I was torn at the time on dropping it or holding on for the ride. Does any sane person fold this at any point?

if utg and button are really maniacal and utg+1 is adjusting to this, then it's fine and folding anywhere would be severely brain-damaged. i might 3bet the turn, but it doesn't matter if all streets are going to be capped anyway.

Its hard to put micro L maniacs on hands unless they are reasonable players. At that limit I think they get a buzz from raising.

I did a similar call-down w/AA when two super aggros at my table went against each other.. I complained a bit at the time when they showed down two sets, but upon further reflection I couldn't find a place to fold, either.

I knew either of them would have done the same thing with a TPTK type hand.

This is one of the sources of variance.

You shouldn't have cold-called the turn raise. After the flop capping and all your opponents calling, it is almost a guarantee that you are beat. Someone definitely has Kings, Aces, or a set of 10s. Should NOT have called on turn.
