Default Re: Folding QQ the pro way

[ QUOTE ]
Second hand, nothing has happened much. Party $22.

UTG raises to t30, UTG+1 raises to t60, Hero calls, folded around to UTG who calls t30 more.

Flop is AT5. UTG checks, UTG+1 bets t70, Hero folds, UTG folds.

Before you flame me, let me explain my reasoning. It's very likely that UTG and UTG+1 have Ax and Kx, where I'm only about 50% to win. By just calling QQ here, I get away from UTG+1 sucking out on me and making me lose all of my stack, but I easily win the pot when A or K doesn't flop.

Comments appreciated.

This is a pretty wierd post from someone that has been posting here as long as you =/

On what are you basing the idea that they likely have Kx or Ax?

Why can't you raise preflop and still get away from an Axx flop?

How does calling here work to extract money out of inferior hands?

I don't know, I just... I don't think is bad because it's abnormal... I think it's abnormal because it's bad.
