$25NL - QQ

Harriet · #1 06-13-2007, 04:25 PM

Just wanted some feedback on the way i played this hand. I had been playing about 30 mins.Mp1 had been limping quite a bit and MP2 had several times raised after . Wasnt sure if maybe he was trying to isolate against the limper or whether he did actually raise with real strength. I hadnt seen him show down a hand, other than AK on one of those occasions.

Should i be reraising this hand preflop?
SHould i have raised flop
and should i have gone allin on the turn?

I never quite know where i am with QQ.

I make it $4 about 99% of the time there if I feel he's isolating once again

Id probly raise the flop but you extracted alot more value by calling to the turn. Seems like you played this as well as you could have hoped as letting a K/A come on the river would be a terrible idea.

Yeah, standard play should be to re-raise preflop. Nothing wrong with calling if you're mixing it up or have reads.

As played you are disguising the strength of you hand, let him hang himself. Flop line is good. Call the turn too. Call a river bet also, or put in a value bet if its not an ace.
