So how would have been the best way to play the hand? I usually steer well clear of cash games as i'm a tournament monkey but my thought process during the hand was.
There have been two limpers so with my $4 that puts $18 in the pot - i dont particularly want to play QQ in a family pot so i raise the pot to force the limpers to pass.
Now i get reraised by the only player at the table with a bigger stack than me - he has been showing agression in the other hands while i've been at the table but usually he has been overbetting the pot preflop and everyone has passed so he hasnt shown that many hands down.
I decide that flat calling is probably the best option and then i can reassess when the flop comes down.
Once the flop comes 6-2-6 he comes out firing again, which i expected him to but i figure i have the best hand - so how is the best way to play it from here?
given the wide range agg players will 3bet / cont bet QQ looks huge here
since you don"t know if this guy is going to fire multiple barrells post flop with the wost hand id be happy to raise and play for stacks, leaving back about 300 or the all-in overbet whichever move you think the opponent will interpret as weakest.
