HI people!
What do you think of this hand? I considered the range of the big blind pretty strong cause he is a reg (i have 27 hands of him and he is a 27-15) who was playing four tables zoom. I thought his range was something like QQ-99 or maybe QQ-TT and AK AQs. So when the fish goes all in I thought a little about what decision i was going to make. I feel at the moment that it was a little close one and maybe folding preflop was just fine. I also thought that BB is going to fold sometimes so there will be dead money sometimes.

    Seemed like BB played his QQ unconventionally there.

    I guess that you knew the MP was a fish, right? If so, then the call was correct, and the BB just happened to have the top of his range. I'm sure the BB would've made the same call with as low as 88, along with AJo-AKs.

    Meh, JJ is never going to play well 3-way.

    I'm curious about your read on MP though. 27 hands is a small sample and if he's 4-tabling zoom I would expect him to play a pretty tight range. I don't know how you would manage a LAG approach 4-tabling zoom. I think my head would asplode.

    Sorry, it was a bit confusing.

    In that case I don't think he played it too strangely. If he's 4-tabling zoom he's going to be making very quick, robotic decisions. So you can't necessarily expect him to play the way you'd normally expect a reg to play.

    MP is a clear fish. Getting in is more than fine. Feelsbad BB had QQs.
