Default Re: Plugging leaks at 3/6: QQ UI

I hate it all.

Preflop: I cap...though I concede this is a stylistic preference.

Flop: Assuming I just call the three-bet, I hate hate hate your donkbet. It gets us no information whatsoever. It never sells KK or QQ on the fact that we have an ace, so we get no fold equity from it. Congrats, your bet accomplishes nothing. What's so bad about just check-folding here? You are behind villain's range a whopping amount of the time. The pot isn't big.

Turn:

Check-calling seems awful. It's superior to betting...how? The fact that you are checking here also establishes just how awful your flop donkbet was. All your opponent did was call, which he does with EVERY one of his holdings, and you still can't lead into him again.

River: And, thanks to your cruddy play on the previous streets, we have NO CLUE what our opponent is holding at this point in the hand. What do you EVER get value from in this spot? JJ/TT? I don't see it. Check/fold.

The whole hand is a massive attack of FPS.
