My thoughts on the hypothetical hand.

First off, I want to thank everyone for stopping by to contribute their thoughts on this little situation I dreamed up. I felt there was a lesson to be learned in this hand. The lesson is that there is a tie between preflop and postflop and that you must plan your hand accordingly.

Here is the hand:

Say you have QQ in LP and a tight player raises to 3BB in EP. You give him a range of AQ+/JJ+(maybe with TT in there too). You both have 100BB and your image is also of a tight player. The blinds are tight and straightforward. Everyone folds to you.

What is your plan from here forward?

I will give my thoughts in a few days. As always, be sure to include your reasoning and what you expect to do afterwards. Thanks for the info all!

I also later added that I believe this player is generally going to 4-bet QQ+ and and either fold or call with AKo/JJ-TT. If we are to call I would expect him to c-bet all of his range.

If you take the REM(range, equity, maximize) process from Professional No-Limit Hold ‘Em then it helps straighten this hand out.
