Default Re: preflop limp re-raise = me LOST

When I'm limp/rr'ed and have something like QQ I generally don't try too hard to take the lead in the hand. If he has garbage let him keep betting, if he has AA or KK get to showdown pretty cheap. In this case I'd cap preflop since the SB is subsidizing the pot but go into calldown mode following his flop c/r. I'd also check behind on the turn, esp if you can't call the c/r. This pot has gotten big enough that putting yourself in a place where you may have to fold for the sake of trying to make a thin value bet sucks. You also have a 2 outer against AK, KK, and TT, which isn't great but makes being forced to fold the turn even more distressing.
