qq heads up

haven't got the hand history but can explain roughly how it played out.

50nl 6max, pot was folded round to me and I min raised, co button and sb folded. bb then raised to about 6, i reraised to 13 then he re re raised to about 20
flop was t 8 6 rainbow. he bet half pot i called, turn was a 2 he shipped his last 20 i and i called, we both started with about 60.

he turned over aa, it wasnt that unexpected but i cant figure out when i shouldve got out of this hand or if it was just one where you have to take the hit.

Well I wouldn't have minraised, then I think you should have folded to the 5-bet. Once you call there I think you have to call the half pot bet OTF, but I think you can safely fold to him shipping the turn.

[gormonster]

meant to say i pot raised
if id raised to about 6 then he re raised is that just a call then see what he does on the flop? if he bets flop and turn should i then fold?

[HeyKidMove]

When would you raise to 6? If you're talking about raising to 6 when you enter the pot, that would be a little excessive.

When I looked back, I think you should have either shoved or folded PF. If you're just going to call off your stack after the flop, you should have just shoved after his 5-bet. Folding there would be the better option though.

Why is your 4bet so small? Once he minraise 5bets you pf you can assume he's a fish with AA or a fish with KQ or something random. It's more often AA, though. Or if you decide to call the 3bet because villain's 4bet calling/raising range dominates QQ, then shoving flop is ok. 6bet shoving is terrible if he only calls with AA or KK. The average nl50 player is only stacking off with that range.

Probably dont 4bet this if the dynamic isn't such that you are comfortable stacking off preflop. As played fold on the flop.

Would you min-raise with rags in an attempt to steal?, probably not so dont min-raise with QQ. The rest of the hand is player dependant. Difficult to get away from an aggressive BB but easy fold against an unknown or tight BB.
