Default QQ against Cappers and Raisers

With all the betting and raising Pre Flop, I had to figure there was a chance someone had KK or AA. I came out firing on the ragged flop and was raised and re-raised. With a raise and re-raise on that ragged flop, the chances of someone having KK or AA had to skyrocket. A single raise could easily be JJ or even TT, but a re-raise screamed KK or AA. However the pot odds were huge and there's always a chance I was still ahead.

Oh what the hell. I'd just go ahead and cap and lead the turn Q.

If my math is correct, you are getting about 13-1 to call (and you still may face a cap). A 2 outer is over 22-1. I think you are behind way more often than not here. I think I would fold.

The two are equivalent.

To the op: is the preflop action accurate? Who put the last raise in - you, or the cutoff (the way it is written, 5 bets were put in pre-flop)? You provide no reads. You are most likely drawing to 2 outs. Your effective odds are terrible. You are paying at least 4 big bets to show this down. An A or K falling completely ruins any showdown value your hand has. I'd fold the flop. Oh, and make sure to buddy list the SB.

You wouldn't consider what follows an argument for folding the flop?

I didn't say anything about the action, I just wanted to point out that the "You're a neanderthal" argument you frequently use is a teeny bit disrespectful

Sorry for the pre-flop error. I had to type out the hand history myself because the converter wasn't working for some reason.

I was the capper. Pre-Flop, MP1 called my raise and CO re-raised. Then I capped and it was called around.

It might be disrespectful, but so is giving a reply that is saying to cap the flop while admitting we are probably drawing to two outs.

This changes things quite a bit. If MP1 is the one going nuts on this flop, I definitely fold.
