Screams AK to me,  I call personally,  I dont mind taking a 50/50 early on  but in calling and putting him on AK alot of the time I'll be suprised and he flips over JJ/1010

Seems like a big raise for it to be Aces. If he's got Kings, ah well, you can still hit.

I'd call and cross my fingers. Although you haven't invested a lot here, it might be worth a gamble as your stack isn't too impressive.

And I agree, it does smell like A-K, perhaps even J-J

I'd have to agree with snoop. (and again what the hell is it with people foldin Q's??..ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH)

And I@m taking all in boy for less than AK...AJ or less...(unless the boy plays the overbet with Aces cus noone believes you card)...maybe even small pocketpair...but I don't think he's got more then one overcard to your pretty ladies.

tricky that, i think your beat. I'd probably call though.

I do the same early in tournaments with AA, KK (more with KK). Thats when the loosest money is about and for all the world you are sat there thinking he has JJ or AK.

Purely on the basis of his hand range you have to call.

fold

please..come sit at my table :)

All these people folding queens are doing my nut in.....

I reckon we should have a special tourney with everyone who ever asked whether to fold pocket queens pre-flop and me....man that would be a fun tourney.

unless you have 3 raises in front of you and folding makes you 1mill£ there is no reason to fold pocket queens (and even then I would have to seriously consider calling pre-flop)
