Better line to call reraise preflop, but still get money in middle on flop?

I don't see this as a fold regardless of what opponent has but what do I know.

really?... look back at the HH, doesnt something give it away, esp. at 50's, this play at 30's and below is a much harder laydown.

Yea something gave it away...OP told us the hole cards:P Still doesn't mean this is a necessary laydown.

no... tell me if this thing is off, but most of the time when your solid preflop raise gets min raise back at you it means higher pockets, AA or KK, atleast through my error I've seen this. I think it telegraphs it, saying "I know I have a better hand than you, but I want to milk it". I've layed in this situation and many have showed off the KK or AA after that. It's not easy b/c a lot of times bad players will do this with worse but I think the former outweights the latter. Also, say you drop and lose your (125 or whatever chips), you're still fine and can outplay later when the creppy 'min raise' isn't behind you 4-8xBB raise.

Again this is from 2k+sng's, and has been the same at each level, but the 'good' players don't pull this min raise stuff... they push the whole stack there, again off of my observations... anyone else notice this? I should keep a tally of the times this 'min raise' is showed down and see if this is true. Or maybe in my mind the results are skewed.. if it is less than 50% of the time then my little 'read' is wrong. But bad players seem to push with lesser pockets and 'min raise' with really strong holdings.

Raise... Reraise... and a re-remin(gimme action please)raise... If this isnt a situation to lay down QQ I don't know what is.

All I see is the player being dealt Queens, making a raise, and a minraise...where's the extra raise?

err whoops read it wrong... still a fold based on the min re-raise. In my experience this is always a sign of a monster.
