No reads other than villain had done nothing to impress me so far. Any one with an alternative to this line?

A 14 BB hand with QQ on the bubble doesn't exactly seem like the kind of situation that screams "postflop" to me. The board's pretty drawish, but safe for you otherwise, so you're not getting away from this hand at any point; even if you don't get the money in on the flop, you're likely to be too pot committed to fold to a K or A turning. I don't think it matters too much how you play this after the flop, consequently.

After I posted this hand I was thinking the same thing. Maybe I could have bet 700 preflop but I'm guessing thats just results oriented thinking creeping in.

Hand was perfectly fine of course.

Heh... villain had A8o? Meh.

My normal raise here is to t600 but no es importante. Captain D0nk Stack woulda called anyh00.

I might bet 500-800 on the flop, but a push is fine
