I assume i took the right decision to fold pre because I am probably against AAs, KKs or AKs. He also snap moved all in. Btw i did not want to flip a $60 coin preflop.
What do you think?

Thank you

Not to be an asshole, but you better get really used to it. I recommend becoming a degenerate gambler so you like to do it.

I am not playing a tournament Hopscotch so i will not shove pre with my QQs. I know i am beat. If I start to gamble like that many times I will have big swing in my roll especially with QQs. I only gamble when I think i am in the best position to do it otherwise I lay down my hand.

the problem is even if you think his range is AA/KK/AK, you have to call due to pot odds. so thinking "i wont take a coinflip" is really bad logic, in fact you are losing money if you fold here in the long run.

additionally if you think your opponent will only shove with such a tight range, why are you 4-betting him preflop? almost no one will just flatcall when you have put so many chips in the pot, so 4-bet/folding QQ here turns your hand into a total bluff.

You definitely opening my mind

What should I do pre? Just call his raise and see the flop?

Thanks

Wow,

I strongly believe I butchered preflop in the QQ hand I posted a minute ago but this hand exceeds my level of horribad (no offence dude, we all suck sometimes)

Seriously: DO NOT 4bet QQ (and especially not to a committing amount) if you don't plan to stack off. I mean I'm sure you knew before you 4bet that...

So you can't really expect him to CALL your 4bet with worse hands. He's pretty much 100% shipping or folding (calling would be "fancy stuff")

You've just successfully turned QQ into 72o

EDIT: shoulda read Steve's reply before posting, as he pretty much says the same as I do. Sorry for repetition.

4bet folding QQ is horrible, man.

As played, get it in, the guy is far from a nit looking at his stats.

I'd also flat against this guy as his 3betting range is wide against a BTN isolate and you'd like to play vs his whole range and not just the top of it.

I agree with the analysis here. I'd flat but if you are 4 betting you definitely have to get it in.

One other question/potential leak given the quote above. If this guy is nitty, what are your stats? Those stats probably look like a lot like the people posting in this thread and I wouldn't call us nits. (of and my range here is more than AA, KK, AKs)

22/17 with a 9% 3bet is nitty now apparently

(and i'm not even a stat whore!)
