Default Re: $65 Live MTT bubble play with QQ

I beat him into the pot Hellmuth-style, haha.

If he's willing to make that play for what is going to end up being 75% of his stack, you have to at least recognize the possibility that he has something. There is a chance he's trapping you. However, even if he is trapping, it is very likely that he's trapping with a worse hand than yours.

It's not just AA or KK that I could see him making this play with. I think he might also do it with something like 88-QQ or AJ-AK.

Of course, there is a chance he has nothing and thinks you're just screwing around.

To me, it adds up to a call...a quick call, possibly followed by some sort of touchdown celebration.

I guess to answer your question, I'm calling with 1010+ and AQ+. To start out, I'd raise there with any suited ace, any A10+, or any pair.

Good luck!
