i think this is a situation where i'm trying to look f.o.s.

if i had not posted teh hand and had asked people to give me a read, i think i wouldve gotten a much wider range

fwiw, i got looked up by qq from the unknown and 97o by the player who i have history with

im not sayin this type of play cant/shouldnt be utilized. in the right spots it can be great (read: 97o).but wouldn't you agree that QQ is at the bottom of the calling range of a good unknown in this spot? donks will be donks and call with less, but a good unknown could make mincemeat out of you doing this, so i'd jsut prefer to play it standard until you do develop a feel for your opponent.
