    Default Two hands, one villain

    Villain's 27/21 over not enough hands. I've been splashing around a bit and my image is shot to hell

    ******* Hand 1 ********

    I don't think I've seen this move ever at 200NL, but I figure I'm looking at the ol' preflop limp/reraise slowplay with QQ+...

    Hero has 15 seconds left to act

    first hand is fine, second hand i would just fold to the preflop reraise unless you really think you can bluff him, which it looks like you set out to do.

    Hand 2: Sometimes I check that behind.

    warpe,

    Do you have any info on villian other than stats in hand 1? If he's somehow solid I dont mind a fold preflop, because I doubt you have the odds to chase a set. As played, probably fold flop, but I feel pretty meh about it.
    In hand 2 fold preflop unless you've seen him reraise light. As played check flop, you are probably WA/WB here

    Yeah, I felt meh about 1 as well...but it was such a weird play that I figured discretion was the better part...etc.

    Hand 2, I was more inclined to think he was FOS.

    well, if you think he's FOS, why raise? You are either way ahead or way behind (WA/WB). Just check and see what happens.
