Re: I folded QQ before the flop
im assuming you dont know what he had because he didnt show.
its hard to say what the correct move was. its true you got second, maybe you could of gotton first if you doubled on that first hand.
looking it over, id say AK is unlikely, unless UTG+2 has a death wish, that was a nice flop. its likely UTG has a big ace (AT with a fair enough flop raise, AK for a fair enough bluff). UTG+2 prolly has a pocket pair.
now its likely its anything from TT to AA. however you couldnt get that close to a read on hand one preflop.
the reason i push is
a, there are so many hands that will call that you have beaten
b, so what if you lose, youve put no effort into the game so far.
personally id prefer to go out hand one that on the bubble.
now you got second, and thats fair enough, but you couldnt be certain of anything at the time beyond the fact that on hand one you got a monster. the only two hands you dread is AA and KK.
was it the right play, we'll never know, but it was a questionable play in my opinion.
itd be nice to get opinions from others, but like i say, its an easy push. 1 stack, 1 chance, 1 more in 5 minutes if you lose.
