Re: $2/$5 NL Live hand
Seems like he has a set here almost always. I say he has a set rather than 68 because you pegged him as a solid player, which I take to mean wouldn't limp in LP with 68( ...maybe raise but not limp)....

Re: Very odd QQ spot
IMO I think calling is the worst option...putting in nearly 25% of my stack preflop is pretty bad business, I think, because the size of the pot won't really allow for any play postflop except push...

I'm on the button with QQ.
UTG limps, MP limps, MP2 limps, CO limps and I raise it to $16. The...

yeah but this turn is a very dangerous card.
i will probably overbet the pot in this case many times.

Why raise the flop? None too many cards hurt me and I'd love someone to catch a 6-high straight on the turn.

Re: 400 NL-- QQ on the river, bet or check?
Out of the BB, there's a decent chance you counterfitted him on the river. I bet $75-100, and probably fold to a c/r all in because he'll never do that with a worse hand, I think.

200NL on Pokerroom. Generally passive game with its fair share of idiots. I start the hand with $255, LP has $245 and BB has $200 even.
