Re: Did I play this QQ right preflop?
Well Depends on how well you play post flop. Internet players on avg are going to call this with a wide range of hands. For the most part they will call you 100% of the time with AA, KK , QQ and prob AK as well. But I think your positive vig would come from them calling with any pair. THere are a lot of players who immediately think race in this scenario and will call with 44. But if you play well post flop I like a good reraise here and if you get a call move out on the flop with a standard contnuation bet. I think in the long run this will shrink your variance.

[/ QUOTE ] I think given his stack size any reraise PF will pot commit him. So yeah the play is fine. I can't imagine an argument for a flat call behind, and reraising to, say, T2000 already puts half your stack in. |

Pushing here is g00t! I think you played it just fine ... saves you a ton of guessing and pain when the K flops and A turns, too.
