10NL 6-max zoom on pokerstars.


Hero (BTN): $14.42
SB: $14.71
BB: $10.00
UTG: $10.40 ---> VPIP/PFR = 14/8 over 36 hands
MP: $9.80
CO: $10.27 ---> Unknown

Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is BTN with Q:heart: Q:club:
UTG raises to $0.30, 1 fold, CO raises to $0.90, Hero raises to $2.20, 4 folds

What do you think about the way hero played this hand? I don't usually 4bet QQ, but I was worried that if I flat-called with QQ, then I would invite others to play a multiway pot. I was also worried that flat-calling could attract a 4bet squeeze from a worse hand. So I made the decision to cold 4bet with QQ to a small size, with the intention of folding if anyone 5bet me. Was this a good plan? What would you do if you got 5bet here?

Fold to a 5 bet and against this UTG I think we can fold if we cold call and he 4 bet squeezes because he is nitty enough to only have AA/KK if he takes that line.

I personally just call pre with intentions of getting it in on a lot of flops and am only cold 4 betting AA/KK/AK here.
