In the QQ hand you are better off shoving river beacuse of this oppenents passive tendencies. As for the AK hand this is real bad. Your shoving for almost 2x the pot. Hes never calling with worse than what you have although he does fold some better hands. Still bad though

I had 77. I almost snapcalled because the shove made no sense with any hand that beat me except 88 or 99. And I wasn't sure either of those would have 3-bet oop from the BB...

But then I talked myself out of it, because villain was 2p2 and wouldn't do something retarded like shove AK there...

is not retarded if he can fold out small-mid pps like he did here. also, meta. he can, for instance, shove boats, AA-KK on similar boards now knowing what you know.

as for the hand posted, flip a coin. readwise, i lean more towards folding this. only worse hands i see him shoving this is AJ. i think you'll see boats and even slowplayed KK-AA from this type of player. but the prob here is we don't have a significant read, so like i said, flip a coin.

im playing KK/AA/TX the same way, so it was probably a good fold once we got to the turn.
