Default QQ Top Set Deep-Stacked vs. Keyser

Dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in the CO. Three orbits or so have run at the table, which is six-handed. Both I and the button have a standard tight image, not much should be known about either of us to each other. We're playing with 200 BB stacks.

I open raise the QQ in the CO and get reraised a small amount, about 3x by the button. Given his tightish action so far I decide to call instead of four-betting. The two of us are heads-up. The flop is Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and I lead out for 3/4 the pot. He flat calls. The turn is 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Again I lead out 2/3 pot and he just pushes. I'm getting about 7:3 and I call.

Comments on other ways to play the hand? I'm really lost as to how deep-stack influences how I should have acted. Is 4-betting preflop much better? Is going for a check-raise on the flop much better? Is bet/folding the turn a little better? The main difficulty I had on this hand was my lack of deep-stack experience and the short number of orbits run so I really had no reads.

I'm the villain here, might wanna include that in the title if you can still edit. Not b/c I'm cool but b/c people like 2p2'er vs. 2p2'er hands.

If I know villain is 2p2 I am more likely to call (assuming he knows we are 2p2)

umm terp, lol @ snap calling vs keyser. This is a really ez fold against him based on his flop play. Pre is fine, not a huge fan of flop, but I'm not coming up with much better, but I have a totally different image against keyser than you do, so I think I can c/r here and he'll play it different. I can actually see a c/c on flop :x. Might be best

have you ever considered I just stay out of your way b/c you're a superuser?

he's actually right though, I am fairly nitty in non-preflop ways, although I don't think OP and I have ever played together so he wouldn't know.
