Default Re: QQ hand 5-handed

Badly played on all streets. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] It's all good, we are here to learn. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Preflop: Raise to about $10 preflop, and more if you expect callers. You want to build big pots in position with your strong hands. Once button raises, either call or raise to about $50. Make him put in a large chunk of his stack in preflop if he wants to outdraw you. If he's uber tight, I might call to conceal my hand, but given your read, repop him to $50.

Flop: Make a bigger bet, about 2/3 the pot. The board is very coordinated, and you don't want AK hearts or KQ to see a cheap turn. Somehow get your stack in the middle on the turn. Bet/3-bet or check/raise allin. Hope he has TT-JJ and not AK.

Edit: KK and AA may fold to a check/raise, so I like leading the turn better.
