Turned the nut flush bet half pot and got raised. I thought he may be on a draw and just called to keep his bluffs in, the river brought as second queen I checked he bet and I called. He would have raised if he had a set on the flop, I should have known I was good and re-raised in this spot I left value on the table.
In hindsight when I get re-raised on the flush completing turn, what can he have? A king high flush draw would call a re-raise, a made flush would call or perhaps even raise. I think there are perhaps more Villain errors to be made by re-raising…I need to sleep on it…
Raise of 9K by big stack, button re-raises to 22K and I cold 4 bet to 42K from big blind with QQ. Flop J 10 4 and I lead for 49K in to 100K pot and the button shoves all in for his last 110K. I should never have raised the flop his range was Aces, Kings Jacks, Tens and AK I lose to all of them except AK…ridiculous lead out and awful call. Agghhhhhh…. just so bad… when will I learn to be the robot? The cold calculating machine that would never had bet in such an awful spot. I should have checked and maybe called one street at best….don’t be a donkey in high value tournaments…Perhaps I should have raised more would 49K have been better and fold to his 5 bet shove? Difficult spot will check this one tomorrow…OK so you can’t just cold 4bet and fold QQ
If you 4bet QQ then you should call it off. Just to prove my point, let’s run the numbers.
You’ll be calling 408bb into a total pot of 67.5BB, meaning you need ~59% equity to breakeven on a call (40/ 67.5)
vs. the narrowest of ranges (QQ+, AKo, AKs) your hand has 40.2% equity, which means it’s +EV to call off once you 4bet.
