QQ facing aggression from tightie... cap, call, or fold?
 

Here's a quickie. Through 40 hands, UTG is 6%/6%/infinity. Haven't really watched any of his hands to know how he plays beyond that. The other two are tropical poker fish.

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, SB calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG calls.

Flop: (13 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP1 calls, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, Hero...?

Cap the flop, and fold the turn if UTG leads?

What's your table presence at this point? I'd cap it and see the turn brings, but likely he's got you beat.

I think I'm capping the flop and re-evalusting on the turn. If he bets into me, I'm calling down, unless the turn is an A/K, and obviouslt raising a Q. If he checks, I sort of like checking behind here, although there certainly is a case to be made for betting.

I've been sitting at the table a while, playing very tight and very aggressively. (I've been getting ass cards, and thus look something like 10%/6%/4.0 to someone with Poker Tracker.) I'm up a decent amount. I don't think many players notice, though, because I still get calls everywhere -- got called down by king-high two pots in a row.

Most would be capping AA/KK preflop.

Cap the flop and see if villain leads the turn. You must consider 99/AA/KK at that point, but the pot is now awfully big and there are fish swimming along with you.
