I ended the limpfest. What now?

No real read on the BB. Button is has played like a total LAG and picked up a few nice pots.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (8 handed)

MP2 (t1895)
CO (t1780)
Button (t3080)
Hero (t1355)
BB (t1200)
UTG (t2175)
UTG+1 (t1000)
MP1 (t1015)

Preflop: Hero is SB with Qh, Qd
UTG+1 calls t50, , MP2 calls t50, 1 fold, Button calls t50, Hero raises to t500, BB raises to t1200, UTG+1 folds, MP2 folds, Button raises to t3080 ...

Hero ?????

hrm, if you put them on exactly AA-QQ, you have 13% equity, 16% if they can't have QQ. i think you call.

on another note, i think i make my raise less here preflop.

Oh, and it was an $11.

You raised 40% of your stack with QQ and want to fold it against one player?

[citanul]

two players.

I guess if I want to be a real pooh bah I'll need to starting reading all the words in the posts, not just 7 or 8.

Button pulls the rarely seen "limp on the button then reraise the blinds who are pot committed all in". I honestly do not know what to make of this situation. QQ is ahead of alot of things here (tt-jj, and ak since we are 40% in), but behind AA-KK. Obviously if it is just one player it is easy but if it is too its a bit of a toughie. I still think it's a call since you have so much of your stack in, and have so much beat here. Folding for me is a lot easier if I haven't raised 500. What a mess, I'm not too sure.

Two players. That's why it's scary. Raised to 1200 and then an all-in from the Button for 3000.

I don't really see two players as a huge obstacle here. Often you will see both with Ax, most likely one of them has AK. But all things considered (that you most likely will lose if an A or a K comes) I still like the risk/reward ratio here. There is always another SnG starting if things don't work out here.

Folds. I also really don't like the PF raise to 500. I would've been more like 2x-3x BB 100-150. More than likely, your PF bet of 500 has caused the all in action from the other players. Look for AA and AK in their hands with AA winning.
