1-given opponent, nh.

2-meh, i think this is fine. you'll see more stuff like scs/pps/etc here. nh again.

3-just shove pf.

4-sure. getting it in w. an overpair vs. an unknown on a drawy board never seems to be wrong.

Hand 1: This is a tough one. Opponent plays lots of hands but you might be beat here.

Hand 2-3: Played fine.

Hand 4: I think youre behind here to 76 or a monster draw (coinflip?). I dont think a hand like A7 will show up here. I would call flop and re-evaluate

Thanks for the comments. After about 5k hands queens are by far my biggest loser. It seems if I get all-in PF I'm up against aces or kings, and if I see a flop and there are no overs I get crushed by a set.

Here are the results for those 4 hands IIRC (I'm at work so I can't check PT):

Hand 1 - Villain shows JJ for quads (ouch)
Hand 2 - Villain shows AA and I lose
Hand 3 - Villain shows AA/KK (can't remember)
Hand 4 - Villain shows 44 for the set

Fun times. Just wanted to make sure the lines I'm taking with QQ are okay... I guess my biggest question is whether to go all-in pf after being 3-4 bet. It seems like it's AA/KK every time... should I just call the re-raise and see a flop?

Usually I never go all in with QQ after a 3bet because the only hand that you can beat is JJ/AK. But most of the times ppl seem to be able to fold JJ. The lines you took in those specific hands seem fine to me b/c villain plays a ton of hands... against a TAG it would be differetn.

I tend not to shove QQ preflop - you will often be up against AA/KK. I will only shove against a complete fish. Hand 2 I call and evaluate flop. Hand 3 is fine.
