How to protect this QQ hand?
Party Poker (10 handed) converter
Preflop: Hero is MP3 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>, Hero raises, CO calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB and BB call. Flop: T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> BB checks, UTG checks, Hero? My queens are most likely ahead, do I need to get creative to protect my hand? Bet: give CO 9:1, BB and UTG may get 10:1/11:1 if callers. Good enough for a heart draw or 2 overcards. Check: save bet for the turn if checked to me and card is safe (no heart/A or K), gives CO 5:1. Flop check may induce bet from BB or UTG where I'd re-raise, giving CO 3:1 or 7:2. What's your line? |

You can't protect it. Bet for value. In addition you might get someone to fold a hand with an ace or a king, which would be great it they're incorrect to do so.

It's a TT3 board. What are you protecting from? Just bet your damn hand. Bet it for...what's that thing called...oh yeah...VALUE.

Re: How to protect this QQ hand?
Checking this flop is absurd. If you want to protect your hand, it's very simple: bet. You should be worried about people with a single overcard to your QQ. Betting out will clearly protect you from those hands.

Good enough for a heart draw or 2 overcards. [/ QUOTE ] A heart draw is always correct to call. If you hand read, you will notice that it is impossible (unlikely) for anyone to have rwo overs. Bet the flop. Krishan |

It's close between betting and open-folding. Depends on your table image, have you won a lot of pots recently without a showdown?

You can't protect your hand on the flop here, therefore you MUST bet for value. Otherwise you check and give everyone a free card to beat your vulnerable hand.

You may also be raising trip Ts on the turn. You don't want 3 bets going in on the turn. Bet the flop. Bet the turn.
Hearts are going to call no matter what. Don't give a single heart or overcard a free chance to catch. [ QUOTE ] Flop check may induce bet from BB or UTG where I'd re-raise, giving CO 3:1 or 7:2. What's your line? [/ QUOTE ] |
