Default Re: (55) QQ line

One line of play to consider is to minraise pre flop. The theory is that AA and KK will never fail to re-reraise pre flop.

I'm surprised there has been no comments on this. I really don't like this line. Sure, you can really define your hand the times that someone is holding AA/KK behind you, but does that make up for the much more likely case where you end up playing QQ in a family pot and lose to a very large range of hands?

I personally never use the min-raise unless I'm heads-up (maybe three-handed) and my opponents have shown that they'll fold to it most times. I just don't like giving the BB odds to call with any two, which makes the post-flop play much more difficult.
