    getting my swell on

    Default very weird spot w/ QQ

    CO seems fishy, esp. because of the min 3 bet.
    BB is a pretty aggro, runs like 24/21/5 over good sample.

    should i fold/raise pre? this is just such a strange spot i almost felt like just folding pre, but i think i had decent set odds at that point.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (6 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($269.35)
    CO ($94.25)
    Button ($118.15)
    SB ($42)
    BB ($296)
    UTG ($228.05)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with Q, Q.
    1 fold, Hero raises to $8, CO raises to $14, 2 folds, BB raises to $36, Hero calls $28, CO calls $22.

    Flop: ($109) K, T, K (3 players)
    BB bets $46, Hero...

    Shitty spot pre. I'd probably play it the same.

    Fold flop though. He has quads or AA

    Normally someone does raise that little with AK.

    well i mean its kind of trivial, but its just one extra reason to fold.either way hes not donking into two ppl with QQ/JJ or 4 betting w/those hands.

    I'm no poker authority, and this is no criticism its a question. If you don't think he is 4-betting with JJ/QQ, so he's not 4-betting with less than KK why call pre flop? Or are you assuming he might be 4-betting with AK?

    because it was a small 4 bet and i had decent set odds, which is basically what i was playing my hand for.

    Preflop is close I think but it looks alright to me, personally I don't think the fold is too tough on the flop.
