    Default QQ meets resistance

    Been at the table for a very short time, raising every hand I'd been dealt in (like 3-5 hands this far) Not meeting any resistance yet. Get QQ and figure it's a good hand to induce a bluff with.

    you have raised most of your hands, they think you are a maniac. you finally get a really nice hand and they reraise you thinking you are raising with crap again. i would reraise big preflop and take control of the hand.

    Yeah, that's one way but I decided to play it from the flop

    hero raises [$22].
    enemy is all-In [$12]
    hero calls [$1].
    ** Dealing Turn ** [ 2h ]
    ** Dealing River ** [ Jh ]
    hero shows [ Qc, Qs ] two pairs, queens and twos.
    enemy doesn't show [ Kd, Tc ] a pair of twos.
    hero wins $56.5 from the main pot with two pairs, queens and twos.
    enemy has left the table.

    EASY hand, the money isn't nearly deep enough to even think of folding here.

    Looks like a frustration call by enemy as the shortstack at the table. He had the magic "all even-numbered cards" hand.
    Note: new guy and very open to constructive criticism, so go ahead and weigh in! I'm here to learn.
