QQ preflop with an All-In...

[JrJordan]

Good afternoon fellas,
I've been in a sticky predicament about 3 times this past week with QQ, and an all in coming preflop. There have been slightly different circumstances each time, so I'll give some detail. I'm playing $25NL at party poker. I know the general rule for KK is to go all in with it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Your question is ill-defined.

You need to consider:
1) position
2) other player's actions
3) the stack sizes
4) the nature of the game
5) the amount in the pot currently.

To me #5 is the most important, but I don't see how your question can be answered without considering the variables.

Hi,

You are going to have to give a bit more information to get an answer to this question.

It is very difficult to hear a question such as "Should I go all in preflop with QQ"

I know it is redundant (to some) but there are so many factors that influence such a decision including, but not limited to: (1) Position the all-in came from (2) action before this players all-in (3) stack sizes of the players that already acted (4) stack sizes of the players left to act. (5) Your stack size in relation to the all-in raiser and the other players (6) Your table image if he is raising all in to you (7) current size of the pot (8) type of player making all-in bet (your read --- if any -- on him).

Try to post each of the 3 hands. You may find that the answers you receive from each are different.

And be careful with

This is also situationally dependent.

Josie,
Did you copy my post, or were we just thinking along the same lines minutes apart....
