$22: QQ Early

Another hand for evaluation, guys.

Early in $22 10man on UB, blinds are 15/30 and there are 9 players remaining. There is only one short stack of 430 and the big stack has 2300.

With an average stack in middle position, I pick up QQ.

UTG+1 raises to 105 and it folds around to me. I reraise to 400 and it folds back to the Villain, who calls my reraise.

The pot is ~t950

The board comes 6d 7d 7s

Villain (~t1100) checks
Hero (~t1000) goes all in

Did I play this hand too fast? Since it's early, I don't have a read on this guy other than I've seen him play somewhat aggressively.

My logic was that any kind of bet commits me to the pot so I might as well push and hope he calls me with a lesser PP.

Thoughts? Thanks, guys.

Reraising to t400 is a bit high.

But really, if you lose to a 7, you lose to a 7.

Well, I wasn't worried about the 7. My guess is that he had a big Ace. But probably not AK since most idiots at the $22s think AK is a guaranteed winner.

With that in mind, my raise was intended to feel him out and entice an all in. At the $22s, I've seen tons of players make a reraise all in with as little as 55.

My quandry, then, is this - is there a better way I could have extracted chips from this guy?

I'd be less surprised if I lost to AA or KK.

I think your push on the flop is fine. The pot is plenty big enough and I'd hate to make a bet, get called, and see a K/A peel off.
