Stats, reads?

In general though... no. But knowing something about my opponent would help. He could be an aware reg, knowing you will ISO lighter, and that will widen his 3-bet range. He could just be an aggressive 3 bettor out of the blinds. And overal in general, he could be betting TT+/Ax and some of his air range like KQs, T9s, etc.. You probably won't have more than 50% equity in a spot like this OOP, but in a 3-bet pot, most people at these stakes will play pretty straight forward once you call.

If he's not aggressive, or not capable of 3-betting light, then I might consider a fold.

Personally, I think I'd of 4-bet here pre-flop. Question there I guess is are we folding to a shove?

I think 4-betting causes him to lay down all his hands that are worse than yours more often than not. Otherwise you're going to be put to a decision like this on the flop too often???

At least that's how I'm viewing it this week...

4 bet pre and lead out on flop. When checked to he bets his whole range basically. I don't mind a x/c line on flop, but when u take that line you should probably lead out every Turn card.

In my opinion though the best line is 4 bet pre and lead flop.

Folding to a c-bet on Ahi flop is extremely exploitable, but we're also begging to be barrelled OOP. Raise bigger pre and 4bet OOP.

Agree with the 4 bet preflop, you have QQ, this is six max and you have the best hand nearly always. In fact if he was in anyway loose I'd be happy to get it all in preflop here. Once you are in the hand and the ace comes caution is obviously required and how you continue is, for me, totally player dependent. John is right as usual, reads!! poker is as much a game of people as well as the cards.
