NL25, QQ preflop, should I push??

[pacman2k7]

Villain on BTN is 40/15/2 180 hands, shortstack guy is unknown.

I hate calling here, cause of the SH guys cold call, and BTN range is wide also...

MY standard is to CALL and CRAI on an all under flop...I do not like to 4 bet QQ at this level...A 4 bet will committ you to call if button shoves most likely facing AA or KK...

But this way you are still stacking off vs AA and KK and give button to catch up with an ace.

YES we are stacking off to AA/KK either way..BUT we extract more value when ahead..We extract a C-bet from an UI AK or an under pair that 3 bet "light"..Downside is if he would call a shove with with AK or JJ/TT..Absent a read these hands most likely fold to shove...If we 4 bet what do you think button calling/shoving range is???

Now if button is a freguent "light" 3 better I will 4 bet to ISO the short stack...

BB is a short stack..The worries is with the button...BB cold call is very weak most likely holdings a med pairs and AK...

Ok!

On this level a villain with a stat like this often 3bet w/ JJ+ AJs, AQ, AK..

with 40/15 I cant put him on only AA or KK!!
