    Default What do you make of this cold call?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (7 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP1 ($42.45)
    MP2 ($51.70)
    CO ($106.75)
    Hero ($49.75)
    SB ($59.90)

    BB ($18.40)
    UTG ($107.75)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, Q.
    3 folds, CO raises to $2, Hero raises to $7, SB calls $6.75

    SB is 10/3/2 over 150 hands... basically a nit-rock. What range would you put a cold call of a raise/re-raise oop?

    I really think his range would be close to JJ+ maybe AKs, but even that is doubtful. This could be as tight as QQ+, but wondering what some other opinions are.

    I think even if he is really tight you have to put AK and AKs in his range.

    JJ+ AK+ sounds right.

    Not out of!

    You did have me looking for a subliminal poker message for a few minutes though.

    I'm feeling AK, AQs, and 88-QQ if he thinks he's got implied odds.

    Man, I am slipping. I thought that was a Captain Jim and Pedro skit at first and I couldn't understand why it was brought up here. But it's all so clear now.

    Anyway, a lot of people will like to set mine with any PP and reraising wars won't scare them off too easily.

    Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, Q.
    3 folds, CO raises to $2, Hero raises to $7, SB calls $6.75, 1 fold, CO folds.

    Flop: ($16.50) Q, 4, A (2 players)
    SB bets $3, Hero raises to $12, SB raises to $53.4, Hero ...

    Please don't say "wtf you have a set of queens this is silly." Once again this guy is 10/3/2 over a large sample and have him labeled as one of the nittiest players I have played with. The donk bet made me think he might have a hand like AK and wanted to see what I would do. Once I raised I really thought his range could be as small as 44 or AA (with a very very slight chance of AQ/AK), and I think there is a good chance he would muck 44 pf.

    Now I have already invested $19, the pot is $84 and it is $31 for me to call or ~2.5:1...

    Does anyone just call the flop? I don't think he could hold 2 spades in his hand. But essentially this is an impossible fold for me. Even if I do just call the silly little donk bet I will raise the turn.

    The preflop cold call after being raised/reraised, and his small donk/push really does/did scream AA to me. I didn't get much a reply for his range preflop, but what do you put his range on now based on the flop action?
