    But it's a bad reverse implied odds situation. A halfway decent/aggressive villain is going to value bet you to death with his AA/KK/AK and the occasional semi-bluff that hit (e.g. 89o) and he's going to push you off the hand at least some of the time when he has air. What's the plan when he fires a blank turn?
    Folding QQ on the flop is probably pretty bad. Depends on what Cobras range is though in all fairness.

    Also calling the flop and folding a later street is fine, but I'd imagine that if we are folding this on the flop the only thing in our range that we are calling with is some combos of AK (Some get 4bet I'd imagine) which makes us very exploitable on the flop which is where people are going to bet with their air. Also it's fine to narrow our range down on future streets, to say ohh we have to fold this because we can face pressure later on is awful logic. It's also 10nl where most villains aren't going to play later streets well at all and they probably cbet the flop too much, so we do get to showdown a lot with the best hand in this situation.

    I like calling flop and folding river. Betting river is a bit thin imo, what do we expect to call us? @Griffey? Also I'm fine folding to a turn bet.

    If Cobra is flatting the Odd AA/KK in this situation and isn't 4betting AKo folding QQ might be ok on the flop.
