Default QQ early in FT $6500

Playingwithya is an absolute and total retard. Blidge has been playing too loose preflop and very aggressive. No read on Saso. My image is solid, I've played tight and shown down good hands.

Seat 1: VacumCleaner (460)
Seat 2: Playingwithya (3,230)
Seat 3: ADubs333 (1,545)
Seat 4: saso25 (2,450)
Seat 5: merss19 (1,340)
Seat 6: holla buck (1,320)
Seat 7: blidge (3,260)
Seat 8: PayMyRent (2,945)
Seat 9: nebos51 (3,070)
saso25 posts the small blind of 25
merss19 posts the big blind of 50
The button is in seat #3
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to PayMyRent [Qd Qc]
holla buck calls 50
blidge calls 50
PayMyRent raises to 300
nebos51 folds
VacumCleaner folds
Playingwithya calls 300
ADubs333 folds
saso25 calls 275
merss19 folds
holla buck folds
blidge calls 250
*** FLOP *** [9h 2d Jd]
saso25 bets 50
blidge calls 50

Action is to me...

I know we are raising, but how much?

Take the donk-bets as a check and make it 2/3 potsize.

Ah - and use a hand-converter! Itīs a minimum of demonstrating respect for anybody you expect to take the time to answer your post. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I've been having problems with it... I figured the hand was pretty straight forward

Do we have any intentions of folding this hand at any point, to any raise, from any of these players? What about just pushing to the 50?

Why pushing with 2.5k on a flop of 900? Just make it 2/3 potsize (or as erc said "potsize" - which by the way was as well the first comment I made [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]) and give one of the Villains the rope to hang themselves with A9, AJ, AQ, a flush draw or whatever ...

There's actually 1200 in the pot, but the point remains. Thanks

I bet 900. If you think an idiot will call with AJ shoving isn't bad.

You can't fold here. The only hands that may have you beat is trip 9s or Js (if they played Jacks like this) unless someone would call pre-flop with 2s or J9 but they would have to be really stupid. No one plays an over pair that way pre-flop either.

The retard behind me (playingwithya) showed up with AA. Very, very weird but I got lucky and spiked a Q on the turn
