Default 6.50: Fold QQ three handed?

Not really any reads on either player. I think they were both about average players.

SB (t7610)
Hero (t2650)
Button (t3240)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

I fold here 0% of the time. I tend to have more 1st and 3rd place finishes because of hands just like this. Get your chips in there, double up and you have a stack to make some noise with against the chip leader.

Also, how have you gotten this far and not had any reads on these players? Does the button like to go for the steal a lot? Has the SB been playing tight? Things like this make a difference sometimes, though not in this hand.

you're so ahead of the button's range, that anything but a call is silly.

Do it up. Possibly one or both have pairs you dominate, or they both have aces that lowers their outs or a combination; and your odds are 3:1 and no fear of placing out of the money. DO IT UP =)

If he has AA/KK that sucks, but you are crushing both the raising range of the button and the resteal range of the bigstack. I want to punch you for even thinking about folding in this spot.

Playing a couple tables and I don't remember their PAHud stats. I dont think either was pushing/calling more than an average player. As you said, probably doesn't make a difference for this situation.

This is backwards. You should call with less with a smaller stack.

I call here.

Edit: Bah, I'm an idiot. I thought you said you wouldn't call. My bad.
