No read on player other than he's been at table for a full round and this is first action he has taken?
Trapping to get it in on a flop with no over card or should we be 3-betting pre?

3bet pre especially as you have no read on your oppo.

As played, I think post flop is fine.

Why have you called pre-flop Glasgow? It is because you're trapping/want to see what the flop brings right? The flop is not the one you wanted to see after playing the hand this way so I don't know how you can continue c-calling bets now. The A has ruined your strat but you continue with it anyway.

The hand wasn't mine it was one a mate played out, I think it was a mistake not 3 betting pre tbh.  I think he's trap calling and hoping to get it in the middle on a board without any overs.  I'm not for slow playing my QQ at any point its inviting trouble if the board comes A high.

This is what I'm talking about. If he goes to the flop with this strat then there is a need for discipline when things don't work out imo. C-calling after the A drops makes his original strat a rather pointless one.

Personnally i never slow play qq to prevent getting outdrawing to a weak ace or even a k.Definite 3 bet and get all the chips in most times.
