Very early in tonights Roller, I'm not a regular in stakes this high so no notes and too early to get any reads.

    More I think about it, more I think I was probably good

    hmm shove looks very weak imo, i think you could be up against TT-JJ or maybe ace king. If i put myself in your shoes i think i'd probably marginally call purely because of the weakness of the shove.

    His shove says weakness imo.He may well have over pair to board the way pre flop betting went but id be more inclined to think he has AK 77-jj so think your hand was good.Why would he shove with AA KK QQ and he deffo wouldnt with A3 so i strongly feel he has AK to try and put you off the call.

    pot was 2500 after the flop, he only had 4600 back so I can understand a shove with AA or KK especially given 2 callers after a 4 bet.

    As the games gone on and I've seen more of his play, I think I made a good fold

    Hello Slykllist,

    Sorry it has taken me a while to get on here.
    In your QQ hand I was holding AK.
    As other's have stated my shove was weak, but the shove was to win
    the pot.
    Prelop, you only called my re-raise, but it was 3 handed.
    So figured my AK was the best hand.

    good luck.

    Yeah if you call pre that's the flop you want, gotta call.

    When you flat pre, what's your plan for flop - not set mining here are you
    you check - oppo shoves - perfect - snap call

    If you folding this flop then why do you flat pre
    If you put oppo range as AA/KK then if it's pre or post flop then nothing changes

    Im calling , i think because of the buy in you obviously didnt want to bust early so not a bad fold still. 

    Whenever you play a higher buyin play your natural game, otherwise it will come back to haunt you IMO.

    I agree YG, I would usually snap call here but because it's in the roller and I don't usually play that high I was scared off.

    Thanks to Tyger for taking the time to post
