Default QQ facing 21xBB open raise... :-)

This is a double stack $22 90-player SnG on Full Tilt.

I've noticed MP2 play one hand, where he called two raises cold preflop, then open shoved a 7-7-5 (two clubs) flop for almost twice the pot and forced the other two to fold.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t15/t30
8 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t2535
UTG+1: t2880
MP1: t6495
MP2: t3405
CO: t2820
Button: t5340
Hero: t3525
BB: t3290

Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
3 folds, <font color="#cc0000">MP2 raises to t630</font>, 2 folds Hero ???

I agree, push. More often than not an overbet like this is not AA or KK.

Super easy push. I'll give villain a range of 77-QQ, AQ+, AJs+. The guy is probably afraid of seeing a flop he doesn't like.

Yup I agree with you all and pushed. On this occasion he had KK but I do believe that more often than not he has a medium pair - I just wanted to see if everyone agreed. Thanks.
