This is the first post on here which has actually made me laugh. :P Any thought process as to why?

This is the first post on here which has actually made me laugh. :P Any thought process as to why? Because we have QQ. And you describe the player as shoving hands such as AJ and suited connectors, but slows down a bit with the good hands. He's just shoved his stack in. It'd be rude not to do the same.

This is the first post on here which has actually made me laugh. :P Any thought process as to why? Well Im hoping one of the reasons you made it 1k (or less) pre was incase the shorty jams his 2k in (making sure the betting isnt capped from behind - ie giving you the option to re raise any call/raise behind). The guy (jammer) is the most aggro on the table. He is never jamming the lot with AA or KK, and may well spazz out with 99-JJ. Big suited aces form a big part of his range (AK AQ etc). So on the grounds there is no hand in his range which beats you, one hand you are flipping against, and the rest you crush, there is absolutely no reason to keep your chips out!

That is pretty much exactly what went through my head. Just out of curiosity, what's a reasonable amount to be betting with pre-flop at this blind level? I thought 1000 was pretty standard. Title: Re: [LIVE] QQ - tough spot Post by: AndrewT on June 18, 2012, 03:00:31 PM 1000 is a fine amount to raise generally here - the point is you don't want to raise to 1400 or something, have the shorty jam and get 3 callers, forcing you to see a 5 way flop with QQ.
I'm assuming you called with your QQ and won a nice big pot?

I'm assuming you called with your QQ and won a nice big pot? Didn't really want to post results (mainly because it makes no difference as to whether the play was right or not) but he showed JJ and spiked a J. Good job I didn't high five everyone though! Haha. Title: Re: [LIVE] QQ - tough spot Post by: rfgqqabc on June 18, 2012, 05:37:06 PM Tough because you pulled a muscle beating him into the pot? I think tens+ and ace king plus are My calling range here
Edit: AQ is prob a bad call, too deep Title: Re: [LIVE] QQ - tough spot Post by: Mcbucket91 on June 20, 2012, 04:45:07 PM Tough because you pulled a muscle beating him into the pot?
