I'm getting my feet wet at the $22s, and ran into this situation.

Beginning of second orbit, and a player acting before me open-pushes for the second time in a dozen hands.

Hero has QQ.

Anyone not snap their mouse cord getting to the "Call" button?

Yeah, I'd call. If hes anti-trappng with AA-KK then he deserves my stack.

Call, unless it's me. In which case, super-muck.

Yes, by "super-muck" I meant "insta-call."

It's funny, but I've folded queens twice recently to an early raise, re-raise, call sequence in the 109s that could only mean AA or KK if the players were really good. Both times it was something like 10-10 or JJ vs. Ax (maybe AK one of the times, something as weak as A-10 the other). So I'm now wondering if QQ should be on the never fold list in games as high as the 109s. What do you guys think? Sometimes you even run into 88 vs. 10-10 and have the other two completely dominated. I don't fold QQ that often as is, but there are times when I swear villian has AA or KK, and often they don't.

I dunno about the $109s, but at the $22s and below, I get my money in preflop with a smile.

I've literally gotten beat by calling an all-in HU with QQ like eight times in a row. But I know I'm still supposed to do it.

You mean in a similar situation? And you lost to AA or KK?

At a $11 or $22 I would also call without any qualms whatsoever.
