3 bet, hope to get it HU w/the cc'er and hope he's got a flushdraw/lower pair and not an 8

thanks for comment drsmallz. just what i should have done. i just called, kept the third guy in, who had KJ, and he spiked a K, while CCer folded. felt terrible.

do you ever "try to keep the weak guy in" (i'm proud to say i think i haven't tried to "keep someone in" in the past few years before that moment) or "try to avoid isolating the guy that is killing you". those were my thoughts. where did i get that from?

I assume you meant folded on the flop. If so, I'd lay 3 to 1.

IIRC, he said 'I thought and I thought', he was tired and he made a really bad decision. So I figured that folding was a really bad decision and took a guess. It's too late now for the bet, you gambler, you. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

3-bet. This decision isn't interesting.

Hi Rob. Don't get down on yourself. 10 hrs/week, 4 weeks/month, 7 months, 30 hands/hour = only 8400 hands.

I played the exact same hand! I was UG the Limped in for the big blind, It was raised 3X the big blind. 4 callers I re-poped it for for 18X the big blind. NO FLOP!

The bible (Super System) says QQ has to played SUPER aggressively

Most unsophisticated players won't talk when they have a huge hand. They will look away from the table, watch the TV, check out the waitress ass. Suddenly everything besides the hand seems to be important to them. So when the button gives his little "see where I am at" speech I think you can discount an eight. In addition, the button coldcalled preflop. This weights his range heavily toward pocket pairs. I don't think he plays A8o so only 2 combos of A8s and 3 combos of 66 all of which I doubt he would fastplay on that flop. So, in a nutshell you need to 3 bet this like your life depends on it.

BTW, don't post results so fast as it taints your advice. Also, the DaveR is right on, that is not many hands. Like 2-3 days worth for a busy online player so don't worry about it. You will kill live 20.
