Default QQ UNDER THE GUN................

The game is NLH...200 buy in...blinds are 3 and 5. UTG with QQ and a stack of 200 makes it 25 to go. Folded to the button who calls. Button has about 300. Blinds fold. The read on the button is a very loose player who can be quite aggressive. He absolutely does not need solid values to raise with nor to call a raise with. Very difficult to put this man on a hand.

Flop is 9h 7d 5d

QQ bets 50. The button mini raises to 100.....what now?? Whats the play? By the way UTG does NOT have the Q of diamonds.

results posted later.......

Just push it in. Too short stacked to do anything else and don't want to give free cards.

Easy push.

If he has a set, tough break.
If he draws out to the flush, thats poker.
If he has two pair or a straight on that board shake his hand and offer to buy him a drink.

This is a dream scenario. Villian is toast much more than 50% of the time. Push and take it here or double up.

Auto-push.

With the very shallow stacks here, there's no decision.

Default RESULTS.............

QQ did in fact push all in and was promptly called. Villian showed 8h6h for the flopped straight. I watched this hand just a few hours ago at Hollywood Park. My best friend had the queens and I felt sick for him when the idiot showed the 86. Unless he folds to the min-raise on the flop, there is no way to keep from losing the rest of his stack. The amount of money on the table was just too shallow. Sad but true. I still feel bad for him.
