very SOFT full ring live cashgame in Vienna (Simmering)
Blinds: 1€/1€
MP (200bb deep, outside of this particular situation, seemingly very competent) opens to 4€
HJ (120 bb deep, less competent but not a fish either) calls 4€
Hero in BTN (200bb deep) raises to 18€ w/ AA
MP and HJ call 18€
Flop comes:
QQ4 rainbow
MP donks 22€
HJ raises to 60€
What should hero do?

Think you're gonna need far stronger reads for this to be anything other than a fold.

Paired boards can lead to some strange play but when there is a donk and a raise it's not likely you are good. If your suspicious flat calling the flop and evaluating the action isn't bad but mostly just fold now.

BTW, pre is fine. It's 3X the original raise, plus a limp, plus the blinds. Perfectly fine in a 1/1 game.

Yeah, just fold. We're in bad shape against any reasonable range for HJ. Would need some pretty solid specific reads to continue.

Good 3b sizing , I would fold here unless I had some kind of read on opponent , with this action in front of you , very likely at least one of them has a Q

I'm in the bigger sized 3bet camp. $25 minimum.
