By way of edit: This is the 4th hand of the tournament. First 2 hands were family pots with 5-6 limpers. Haven't seen much aggression yet, but no reads on the table at all.

I don't if I would say it's 'standard', but I do think it's a good fold. Close, but a good lay down.
Exit, I'm a little surprised you call here if you fold the Queens in the hypothetical from Matt's Cardplayer article. equity (%) win (%) / tie (%) Hand 1: 47.3659 % [ 00.46 00.02 ] { QdQc } Hand 2: 52.6341 % [ 00.51 00.02 ] { AA-JJ, AKs, AKo } |

in the Matt Matros article there wasn't 480 in the pot already.
we're getting 1.4:1 here. Big difference. edit: i should say, my problem with the mattros hand isn't that we're only 53% to win, but that theres nothing in the pot already. edit 2: In your equity calculation, you have it so AA is just as likely as JJ, and i dont think thats the case. So the equity is even more in favor of QQ. (plus the dead moneY) |

But do those things compensate for the fact that in the article we *know* the villain has AK, whereas here we can't be sure. I'm just not so sure that in a > 100$ MTT, a player who we know nothing about is raising 4 BBs UTG and pushing to a solid raise and therefore most likely is holding AK? The JJ+/AK range is the best I can figure. |

I'm never reraising with QQ in this spot and folding to a push. Although I will flat call with it sometimes.

I'm never reraising with QQ in this spot and folding to a push. [/ QUOTE ] That's the real point. You can't say no to 1.4:1 here, plus it's early and the donk factor still lurks. And if you bust, hey, you only blew 5 minutes of your time. Though I usually flat call in this spot and wait to build a pot until after the flop. Not because I don't think I'm best, but because it's easier to get paid off by worse hands when you get ahead and easier to duck out cheap when you get outflopped. Mostly the former though. Everett |
