Re: QQ against a fish.
Yuck. I cannot imagine a truly passive player leading into you on the river with a hand you can beat in this situation.
The fold is easy as kiss of your hand

I do not see how you can put him on a middle pair. Not only did he raise from EP preflop but also led into me on the flop and the turn. Until someone convinces me to the contrary, I do not think...

Re: too much too far?
I think the "typical" 3-6 player would react to the hand in this manner.
Automatic bet on the flop after the steal raise.
Usually call the raise with an overcard or any draw.

I have difficulty with these types of hands. Did I push this one too far? I certainly believe the river bet is suspect.
