200 NL, QQ on K-K-8-A board. Hero call?
I believe this hand is all about image.
Hero has raised the last 3 hands in a row. The previous two hands I've actually had AJ and KK, so I wasn't raising light either time, but they don't know that, because the hands didn't go to showdown. So I pick up another great hand... Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $1/$2 Blinds - 9 Players - (LegoPoker Hand History Converter) SB: $282.85 BB: $214.40 UTG: $117.75 Hero (UTG+1): $341.60 MP1: $110.00 MP2: $200.35 MP3: $70.70 CO: $285.60 BTN: $171.00 Preflop: Hero is dealt Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (9 Players) UTG calls $2.00, <font color="red">Hero raises to $10.00</font>, 7 folds, UTG calls $8.00 Flop: ($23) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players) UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $14.00</font>, <font color="red">UTG raises to $34.00</font>, Hero calls $20.00 <font color="blue"> I'm aware of my image, so I bet here to INDUCE a bluff. I just call his raise because I want him to bluff the turn as well.</font> Turn: ($91) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players) <font color="red">UTG bets all-in for $73.75</font>, Hero calls $73.75 <font color="blue"> Not the best card, but I have to call IMO.</font>

looks good to me [/ QUOTE ] i guess. is nl200 any different than nl100? i can raise 4-5 times straight at NL100, and in the end, they still have my hand beat. i would be much more inclined to battle a reg here, who may be shoving really light.

His turn bet looks like a bluff. I like the call.

But if he hit the ace why would he push?
