    Default SnG QQ hand

    should i raise or call pre flop? i was thinking raise as i have to play the hand out of position if he calls.

    flop i have slightly more than the pot, so i go all-in.

    no point betting less on the flop unless i want a call right? if i bet 1/2 pot i dont have enough left for a meaningfull bet on the turn.

    i feel i do not want to give a free card here as i do not want an over card to fall and i want to deny odds for a flush draw.

    im guessing he had A or you wouldnt be posting. only two hands beat you pf, so good raise. flop pretty shitty. hope he dosnt have JJ,99,88 or a club. but despite shitty flop i still push and hope ha has AK AQ.

    Irexes and I both grew up on Party SnGs, so my inclination is to play it the same way - all-in PF.

    What a terrible flop, now sure how I play it without a club.

    I like the way Bobby played it. No reason to go all in before flop. Tough flop, but I am pushing also.

    All in or fold PF. I prefer the all in. I hate calling all in on the flop with one pair and that's the temperature you're setting with your PF re-raise.

    On the flop, I'd fold. All you can beat on the flop is AK or TT. If he's doing this with AK or AQ, or even raising PF with AJ, you'll get him later. Unless he has AA or KK, he's no fear to have the chips that are in the pot. He'll give them away. It's early and you have a lot of chips to spare.

    Pretty funny to have QQ and lose to quad Aces, though, if that happened.

    Yeah, this is one of those situations where if you bet, you'll take it down only if your hand is better, but if you check he'll probably take the pot away from you with most hands. I don't agree with Alex that this is all-in or fold preflop. I might call, but most likely make the same raise you did. Who knows?

    You didn't include any reads, so I assume you have none. I like calling preflop instead of reraising(although I don't think it's horrible).

    I'm check folding this flop unless he makes a really small bet. Pushing any blank turn.

    i'd probably hold back abit more on the flop with those 3 cards. all sorts of possibilities. to be honest i'd have raised more preflop. which would have left me going allin on the flop like you did. but with the chips you had left it might have been worth putting in a smaller bet. then you'll only be raised if he has a straight/flush draw. if he has an ace or pair. he'll lay it down thinking you are value betting.
