Big blind defense against a known thief

[Ed Miller]

You don't protect yourself by check-calling down with queen-high. You protect yourself by making a play at the pot. Betting the turn is a good option...

[Ed Miller]

If your opponent will raise any two, then I'd for sure defend my blind with Q4o. What I would NOT do is check-call on all three postflop streets with queen-high.

Thanks for all the advice, haven't played live in awhile (mostly online), this helps.
