    Fold pre?

    I'm also in the just call river camp, tho I am a nit.

    This isn't necessarily true if we weight his range more to KQ. I think that's what makes this just a call b/c I don't think he gets to the river this way with QQ as often as KQ, even though both are in his range. Also I don't think 66 is in his range as often either as he likely raises flop/turn some % of the time.

    I think they are only 2 important factors in this hand - how much he is calling/3bettting with QQ pre and how much he is c/raising river with worse
    - and we don't know both (especially after that history), so its tough to say

    - yeah and because of it, I must agree with you - I can't give a better argument, because everything is questionable and simply: call is safer, than shove



    - tbh, if I would played this hand I would just call, because I'm nit too - just thought, that shoving can be more EV+
