My play of QQ questioned in B&M
Was at the Trop this past weekend, and was involved in a hand that looked something like this: I pick up QQ in EP, and open-raise it. LP makes it 3 and SB caps it out. I call. The flop brings all undercards. SB bets, and I raise. LP calls, SB calls. SB checks to me on the turn (still no overcards), I bet and they both call. The river brings four to a low straight and I check to another lingering player, who goes all in with his remaining $6, and the rest of us call.
The other two aggressors both show KK. One of them, who is old and foreign, first insults my command of the English language (funny, huh?) and then calls me something to the effect of "a stupid college kid" for raising my QQ on the flop. I figured he could have been betting with AK unimproved, and would expect KK or AA to re-raise an all-undercard flop. At least twice more that night, I saw people cold call with QQ rather than 3-bet it. Now, I'm pretty damn sure that I am not overplaying QQ by 3-betting it pre-flop or raising with it on an all-undercard flop ever if there were other pre-flop raisers. But I also know that I do tend to get over-aggressive at times. Should I have played the above hand differently? (For what it's worth, the guy who went all in at the end won the pot... he had A7o and hit his backdoor, gutshot straight... board was like 48T56.) |
