QQ hand - love it or hate?

[cs3]

why value bet only a non diamond river? i would my hand would be good more of the time when a 4th diamond hits than a non-diamond.

but you may be right. leading turn might have been better... need some resaoning to convince me of why. i jsut hat ethe fact that so many LAGs will push with any 2 cards if they see weak lead as a weakness

I think that you can get a little more info about your opponents hand before commiting your chips. I would suggest leading the turn for about 1/4 - 3/4 of the pot. If he pushes, then you can consider folding. If he calls, assume you are ahead and value bet a non- [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] river.

how do you know this guy is LAG? You said he hadn't done anything stupid yet, except show down a couple of good hands.

i dint *know* he was LAG... i was just stating the fact that LOTS of players will try to push you off a hand with nothing if they think you are weak.

looks like it was a bad play by me, as i suspected. i happpened to get lucky this time but wont be trying this anymore on a board like this.

OUTCOME:
Hero shows QQ
Villian shows KhJh
and my hand is good
