    Default QQ 3bet/squeeze oop

    ok, villain is
    19/14/1.8, raise cbet 17%

    when he calls here I have to put him on a range of 99+/AK/AQ I think.

    Now, if I cbet this here, what am I really folding out from him, probably only JJ right? So if cbetting isn't right here, do I have no choice but to just check/fold?

    If I check and he checks behind, I could check a blank turn and if he checks behind as well I could make a thin value bet on the river, but that's a lot of checking right?

    If this hand were against some sort of LAgg, how would you play this hand?
    $1/$2 No Limit Holdem
    6 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    UTG Pokerlusky ($200.00)
    UTG+1 SpadesOnly ($294.00)
    CO bat999 ($203.00)
    BTN Anhangig machen ($139.80)
    SB Hero ($220.40)
    BB sastrof ($123.55)

    Pre-flop: ($3, 6 players) Hero is SB
    1 fold, SpadesOnly raises to $7, 1 fold, Anhangig machen calls $7, Hero raises to $32, 1 fold, SpadesOnly calls $25, Anhangig machen folds

    Flop: ($73, 2 players)
    Hero checks, SpadesOnly bets $35

    Final Pot: $108

    Am I nuts here, do I just check/fold a big hand like QQ here? Or do I cbet around 40 and if he calls I c/f the turn?

    This is actually a preety interesting spot and against this specific villain check fold is never terrible, yet i hate doing that with a hand as strong as the one we have so id just c bet for 40ish as you said and shutdown if called.
    "This sure beats Super Mario Bros.!" is my ejaculation catch phrase.

    Any reads on his 4-betting frequency? Is he the type that would 4-bet strong hands?

    I'm not too worried about AK here, I think AK would 4-bet, so the K doesn't scare me that much. I think either we were already ahead pre and are still ahead, or were behind the whole time.

    I don't mind c/c here, though it makes our hand somewhat transparent. If he plays straightforward then c/c is fine, and c/f later streets. I'm prob not folding to one bet though.

    villain has 4bet of extactly 0%

    so he's calling here with all huge hands.

    the less-than-pot bet by him screams "call me I have you crushed" imho..

    so I think i'm best off cbetting and if called c/folding turn (unless hit Q), and if i check i might as well check/fold

    Over what sample?

    I c/c at least once against most players. When you 3-bet & don't c-bet a K high dry flop you almost always have JJ or QQ.

    about 250 hands.

    i called $35, he shoves blank turn.

    250 Hands isnt nearly enough to tell you much about his 4 betting range...except maybe that he is unlikely to 4-bet bluff.

    He is very tight tho, and his AF is low so perhaps he is a little more passive and will call his big hands & you can justify folding the flop. Just make a note & move on.
