    Default A hand I played horribly - QQ in bb 50NL

    Woah title fail--> 50NL and I'm in the sb

    Ok well this hand had me saying wtf am I doing so I thought I would post it to receive some beratement/advice etc.

    EP opener is 19/5 over 21
    Button is 14/12 over a good sample with an 8% 3Bet on the button
    Main villain (MP2) was 39/4 over like an orbit and a half

    He was the last person in this pot who I thought would flat my 4Bet, but I guess he could be flatting with like KK+ originally.

    How bad is 4B'ing here? Is standard just flatting the 3B and keeping the likely fish in the pot?

    On the flop I just froze cause I had no idea what the hell was going on, I thought the likely-hood he was flatting monsters was pretty high but how can I fold to the small flop bet? should I bet/fold?

    fold?call? > 4bet. 4bet really bad.

    can't decide which I like better but I'd lean towards fold err, fk I dunno this spot is gay because the button can be squeezing really wide here given both players are weak however the guy who opened the pot is really tight when it comes to open raising....interested in hearing others thoughts on this.

    edit: okay this is def a fold.

    vs an 8% 3bettor isolating at least one fish i don't understand why we need to fold QQ?

    + it's a 21 hand sample size we have for the 19/5 who opened.

    If he is just some random, bet flop and shove turn

    i fold QQ here preflop most of the time. Its not like SB vs BB vs BT&CO situation. 4 bet/ get it in preflop is not as profitable as you expect in these marginal spots. As played, i bet/get it in not folding anywhere in this hand.In live games, i'm more inclined to fold QQ BTW.

    It's a bit smaller than I would make this pre, how is this not the easiest flop bet ever?

    THISSSSSSSSSSSS

    so much lack of positional awareness itt. also wtf does 8% 3bet in LP mean? like 2/24 opportunities?

    the fact that the opener 'seems tight' (hard to really justify this but he's not 80/80 so far) would probably make the 3bettor a bit more cautious squeezing JJ here.

    one more point to consider, there are 3 players left to act after you 4bet, the guy who called the PFR isn't really a consideration, but you have to keep in mind the likelyhood of the PFR having you crushed when you raise here.

    you guys also aren't really giving villain much credit for calling our 4bet.

    the guy who called the 4b is the guy who called this initial pfr.

    so is a loose consensus here that 4betting pre<calling, but as played bet/get it in on this flop?
