How to Play QQ
Posted by Mike McKim on May 4, 2007

I always find myself in these sticky situations with QQ. I know the limper has a solid hand (there aren't too many hands that a person will limp UTG, and reraise.. basically KK, AA, and AK)

I've played with this guy several times before, and he seems like a pretty straight forward player. I do not think I can fold this hand, especially in position. I think if the flop bricks, and he checks, I will make a 3/4 pot bet. If he raises, I can safely assume he has KK or AA. Also, if he bets out on the flop, like he did, I can easily throw my hand away. Anyone else have any thoughts?
