What happened to MP1?

It sure looks like QQ. It could be Q9 or 33 or a tricky AA but I'm not 3-betting the river. He does not seem scared of the possibility of you holding QQ.

I think a guy as aggressive as he was in later streets would have 3-bet QQ PF. I'd keep pushing.

You just call. Seems pretty simple?

I've been seeing a fair share of preflop cold-calls with big pairs lately. And with every raise Button makes, QQ starts looking more likely.

I think I'd raise at every opportunity on the flop and turn too, but somewhere on the river I'd slow down. (I might just check-call the river, actually, but in any event I wouldn't 3-bet it.)

this is why people consider you a nit...not because of you actually being a nit, but the fact that you a nittier than other 2+2ers

I'm 3-betting and wishing it was live so i could go 9 bets
