Re: Fold QQ here?
As often as donks have tricked me with huge overbets like this, I still am not good enough to lay this down. In my life, villain turns over 7-5. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I gotta admit, I probably have a hard time laying this down unless the player is a complete unknown to me. This hand could very easily be Eights, Nines, Tens or Jacks, or even Sixes. At the same time it is very unlikely to be a hand to which you could be drawing to few or no outs. These tourneys are wild, especially early like this. With no other information, I personally like my chances with the Queens here. |

Re: Fold QQ here?
Seems like a weaker PP than queens simply protecting his hand, if you ask me. If you are confident you can make do after folding, I would fold. Seems like a close one, but I would call early in a tournament that it is actually a smaller PP or a semi-bluff.

Re: Fold QQ here?
I think you will double through enough against this random player just enough that it will be +EV. If he flips over a 7, then that's how it goes, i agree that "playing fast with a monster is the new slowplay." (i've had that happen to me in similar situations). But, a lot (and enough of the time) of the time they flip over a flush or straight draw ( or a smaller PP), like i said enough of the time you get comfortable in chip stack in some of these tournaments.
