QQ preflop

[petvan]

I scanned the archives but not very well, or I'm not finding anything conclusive on this.

I have a lot of trouble getting away from QQ preflop. I always raise with it, usually 3-4X if i'm opening, or a near pot sized bump if i'm calling a standard opener.

When I get action on my raises, and opponents start pushing or pot sizing back at me where I get calling all in/fold, or push/fold decisions, I'm almost always getting my chips in.

The only time I lay down is if I'm late and watch an open, raise, raise type scenario where its looking very much like a multi-way showdown.

I'm curious what conditions others lay down QQ preflop say in 9-10 seated, lvl 1-3 areas assuming near equal stack scenarios where your life is pretty much on the line (and a double will put you into mythical 2k position)

Thanks,
