I play QQ tricky and it puts me in a tough spot

[ddubois]

Villain is TAG, 20/17 over about 60 datamined hands. I smooth-called preflop, because I figure if I re-raise UTG+1, it's such a super strong move, that I only get action from QQ+/AK, whereas this way, I might win a big pot versus AT/AJ/JJ/TT, etc, on the right flops. At least, that's the idea.

Um, wasn't this the idea of smooth calling?

read your topic and think about it.

just reraise PF and play from there.

not sure whats so tough about this spot...u pretty much have to call given what u are repping.

[Hercules]

i think u have to call, because ur hand looks a lot like a non believing TJ,KJ typ of hand...
Its sort of close, cuz i cant think about any hand besides maaaaybe AJ, which he would be doing this for value with AND which u beat.
Think its somewhat close, but i´d call.

[sasha]

I would call this, this a perfect spot for him to 3 barrel, scince you did not raise him on turn with 2 flush draws+ straight draws, and a blank hitting river.
He knows you have 1 pair hand, or a draw

[dirtytricks]

Jeezz.. I think you should have raised the flop or the turn, then he might stack off with AJ. This is a bad board for him fire 3barrels, even 2 so I would fold this.

Some history or read could make it a call though. Overbet on river is a big hand very often in my experience. You are not repping much though so thats why this could be a bluff but readless no way Im calling this.

[mrkilla]

so you smooth pre, flop and turn and now want to fold the river?

why?



PS I also like a turn raise , but the way play call
