Title: QQ In Big blind facing a 4-Bet Post by: Rod on July 12, 2009, 10:33:41 PM Hi Guy's
Am interested in some opinions on this hand I get dealt QQ not long after joining the table. I get in this hand with jonpon and he has been playing tight but I only have 17 hands on him. He was playing 12/6 and had not made any 3-Bets. When he raises from the button I have to reraise but when he raises me back what is the best play. Not 100% sure my shove is correct.

Opposite occurs though when the flop comes raggy and we are able to get it in against 1010 99 JJ type hands Title: Re: QQ In Big blind facing a 4-Bet Post by: AlexMartin on July 13, 2009, 12:37:06 PM Meh, i fold to his small 4ball pre. Hes 12/6, exploit a tight player by folding.

Rod only has 17 hands on him at this point.

I'm not sure JJ c-bets all the time on an a/or k flop, I think it checks back quite a bit of the time trying to get a cheap showdown. 99-tt might c-bet and then we might be getting outplayed if we fold, but as greekyboy says, we get to stack the same hands much more on low flops. Title: Re: QQ In Big blind facing a 4-Bet Post by: Rod on July 13, 2009, 06:37:32 PM If anybody wanted to know the result he called and showed AA. I was wondering if anything other than this and KK are actually going to call this. AK might but I am not that far aheda in that case and a decent player would fold jacks to this bet I would ahve thought. Is is better to just fold pre (seems very tight) or call and get it in on a flop without and A or K???
Title: Re: QQ In Big blind facing a 4-Bet Post by: silverslick on July 14, 2009, 12:48:54 AM I had a similar experience at 50c $1 recently and the guy had aces. With not many hands on the guy the range widens and I made it a call. Don't play enough to know a typical range a player might do this with. I figured down to Jacks and AJ suited.
