[LIVE] QQ - tough spot

Hey guys, this happened to me last night and I was wondering whether or not I could have made a different move.

Format:
  • £30 MTT with 1 rebuy or 1 add on.


Stack size and blinds information:
  • We were in level 3 and the blinds were 200-400
  • I was sitting in MP2 with ~18,000
  • Dom was sitting in CO and had ~2000
  • Spencer was sitting in the BB and had ~25,000

Relevant player information:
  • Spencer is known for being really aggressive. I've saw him make huge shoves at small levels with hands like AJ to small suited connectors. He usually plays the hands at the top of his range more calmly than he does others.
  • Dom is at the top of the league leaderboard by a good amount of points. So far, I've not tangled with him much but with his stack size in this pot I'm not at all concerned.

Action:
  • Action folds round to me. Hero in MP2 looks down at QQ and bets 1000. Dom in the CO shoves his remaining ~2000. BU and SB folds. BB shoves for ~25,000. HERO?

Re: [LIVE] QQ - tough spot

It just looks like any of his other shoves. That's actually the trick when a guy shoves often he's quite sure of having action everytime he's got a great hand. Then his whole image becomes the trick. He doesn't even need to be that tricky post-flop.

Just a quick question : How was he shoving before ? Was he shoving as a 3bet or was he shoving as the first one to enter the pot ?
If he always shoved when he was the first one to talk and there, you see him scratching his nose and dancing the mambo the way he already did with AA, then you can talk yourself into a fold.

But really, I can't see you fold anytime here.
