Default Live Hand

Live NL cash game, blinds are $5/$10

Villian 1 has about $1,500
Villian 2 has about $8,000
Hero has about $3,000

Villian 1 opens from UTG for $60 (pretty standard raise at this point). Villian 2 pops it from the cutoff, making it $200.

At this point villian 1 could have anything from AXs to 89s to AA, he's fairly loose but really consistent with his betting and plays extremely well post flop. Villian 2 is about as vanilla as you can be and is only up so big because he has hit people with cooler hands all night long. His range would be 88+ and AK. If villian 1 was tighter his range would be QQ-AA and AK.

I look down and see QQ in the SB, what do I do? My image is pretty good, I haven't had to showdown any trash and have been caught bluffing once which was post-flop. Villian 1 knows me as a grinder, this is my first time playing villian 2.

This game is also a little over my head at the moment, but it was awfully juicy. I bought in for $400 and am ready to walk from the table with my nice little score.
