After I shipped my QQ pre, SB snap called. The more I think about it, the more I really like his big $60 sizing on his 3-bet.
With me having $300 back, it leaves me the option of either shipping too light with the bluff part of my range if I'm polarized on 4-betting, and thinking that I have fold equity, or it gives me a chance to make a nitty fold with my wide button opening range if I'm not polarized on 4-betting. Either way it sets me up to make a big mistake vs a wide part of his range, though shipping QQ doesn't fall into either of these scenarios. It's one of the few premium combos where I'm not falling into a trap. Or is it?
I flip over my Q

before the runout. I always table my AIPF hands, even though you're not required to do so in a cash game. I don't want to risk even the slight chance of misreading my hand and mucking an unlikely straight or flush that I might miss if villain flips over AA or KK.
SB does not table his hand; rather he tells me before the flop hits that my QQ is 'not good'. I believe him but, whatever dude, just flip over your AA or KK. He does not. The runout is 5
