Playing 4 handed I would reraise preflop. That turn card rules, time to push.

pre-flop I'm certainly three-betting this hand.

on the flop the call is okay, I usually raise large.

on the turn when he leads $10 I make it $35 to go so I can get it all in on the river.

QQ is a hand I am still unsure of how to play. TT and probably JJ, I would take the same line here. The reason for my flat call pre-flop was to evaluate the flop, see if I had any overs and what my opponent did and then adjust accordingly. Even with that line, I should have raised the flop, but my brain fritzed and I called instead, thinking I still wasn't sure where I was because he had just sat down. The thought going through my mind was "what if he has AA/KK?" since it seems to be only those hands most normal players will reraise OOP. An area of my play I am still very weak on is having a good PP (QQ-TT), flopping an overpair, but still getting it in versus a better overpair. I still haven't found a good way to sniff those out without getting stacked.
