Standard QQ fold?

[SCBielski]

Villain here is 34/30/4, but we have had basically no history. I think that based on his play, his range has to be something like KQs, AK, KK, 66, or 77. Comments on all streets, please:

All streets look standard to me.

Since villain is incredibly aggressive, and since you know that you will fold to his turn bet -- and he's probably used to that reaction since he's so aggressive -- I would actually invest a little more on the turn. You let him make the correct reaction to your bet, but on the other hand, you don't let him push you off the best hand as easily. Unfortunately with no read other than stats, I don't think you can trust it enough to just call the value bets that will come if he's got you beat.

I'd make about a half-pot bet on the turn, and a blocking bet on the river UI. It sucks because he's going to get better value, but I think his range is wider than the range you gave him, but I don't want to just check/call OOP, because he'd be too likely to charge me more when he's the bettor. If he can raise any bet along the way in that re-raised pot, then I'd fold.

FWIW, I'm not very confident in this line, but at least it will be good for image if he has us beat [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img].

I'm not too confident with that line either, which is why I avoided it. I understand that villain could have floated the flop with the intention of raising the turn, but I don't think he'd try this in a 3bet pot. I can't see him doing anything but trapping given his line; he's making a passive play despite his very aggro stats, which should send off red flags.

Yep, that's definitely the argument for taking the line that you played.
