Default 20-40 at the Borgata--strangely played hand

Really good game last week.

LMP openlimps, the next guy is Asian and he raises. Folds to me in the BB and I have QQ.

LMP seems pretty good, has not been out of line yet. My read on the Asian dude is non-existant.

I 3bet and they both call, tho I briefly considered flatcalling and then pulling a c/r on the flop.

Flop is 997r. I bet, LMP raises and the Asian coldcalls. I call.

Turn is another 9. I check, LMP bets, Asian dude calls, I raise. LMP 3bets and Asian dude 4 bets.

Thoughts?

just a little off topic here, why would u describe the guy as a "asian" guy?? if it was a white guy, would u say the "white" guy 4 betted? what does him being asian or white or black have anything to do with the hand?? nothing against you but just to know why u describe him as "asian" guy and dont mention anything about the other guy as a "white" guy (im sure he is white)

Because it's normal for people to differentiate between people based on physical markers, and in a Southern card room, being asian is one hell of a marker. It's the easiest way.

As for the hand, why would asian dude call-cap 77 after he got counterfeited?

alright, I'll play the role of Captain Obvious.

I'm out of this one. it's extremely likely that at least one of them has you. you're not getting odds to peel, and a call down could be expensive.

He has a 9. Also, he is clearly an Asian.

The chance of one of them having a 9, AA, or KK is more than high enough to warrant folding.
