FT $8.80 Turbo QQ spot
Ok, three players left I have just recently doubled off the villain (BB) and now I have QQ BvB against him. Stats I have on the guy over 71 hands; VPIP 46 / PR 36 and I'm pretty sure at the FT he was playing even more hands than that. At the time I thought it was a clear fold as he is quite capable of having anything from two pair to straights/flushes. However, i was just wondering is there a chance i'm just being pushed around by the big stack? or is this just essentially an unfortunate spot where I have to fold? Would it be fair to say that he has me dead here more than 50% of the time? Is there much I should/could have down differently? smaller flop bet/check? I also took into consideration that he folds to a cbet on the flop 50% of the time which was a clear indicator that he at least had something. First time i've posted a hand history so if I'm not giving enough info or have posted a completely pointless hand let me know. cheers

Re: FT $8.80 Turbo QQ spot
More pre oop esp if he flats a lot.
Less otf.
B/f turn yourself.
Checking you let him rape you a lot.
Check/shove can be good if he was floating a ton of hands otf.

Re: FT $8.80 Turbo QQ spot
sizing pre is completely fine imo
I'd also go less otf and probably b/f turn.

thanks for the thoughts. on reflection I think a little smaller otf and a bet/fold ott would have worked out better; i actually hate the check ott the more i think about it ( even more so considering a very similar circumstance arose today ). at the time i do certainly think i over estimated my position/likelihood of finishing better than 3rd, which also affected my choice to fold.

Re: FT $8.80 Turbo QQ spot
I don't really know if I like betting the turn.
If he isn't capable of floating like it seems it just comes down to whether he will turn hands into bluffs (maybe without knowing it).
Overall I am fine with c/f vs him when he uses this sizing

Re: FT $8.80 Turbo QQ spot
vs such an opponent you can make it 2.3xish preflop for value BvB.
postflop seems wp as default, if you think he will r/c his FDs on flop b/c turn for value, if he will float alot and bet alot of turns c/jam.

Re: FT $8.80 Turbo QQ spot
Seems a weak line to me.
Its bvb and his stats suggest he floats so hes still got wide range ott, some of which we beat. And its an FT, hes bigstack, etc. And we have spr < 2 with 15bbs and overpair.
Id c/shove

If we think he´s going to raise flops with draws what hands do we beat OTT after he jams to our 2ndbarrel? I think the hand is wp. Aint he re-stealing with a lot of hands(that misses that flop) pre? So that flop/turn seems to suit him very well.
