Hi guys!
What do you think about the play with QQ here?
The guy was very aggro with random broadways and wanted to get it in most of the time, but this time he called. At first I was thinking he maybe could have pocket nines, but when the turn was a nine, I just wanted to get it in vs some random ace high, JJ or TT. Did not expect to see duces in this spot :/

Thanks for answer guys :)

Raise bigger pre. Your sizing is standard but against such a fish you can exploit and 3bet bigger. The way you explained it - he never folds.

Dont like the turn overbet but against an aggro fish i guess its fine. You were never folding anyway so the results would have been the same. You may check call turn and river to keep his bluffs in.

Write him a note that he calls low pockets to 3bets and make him pay more next time

How big would your 3-bet size be in these spot? I thought it was big enough here actually...

Thanks for answer btw! :)

Preflop size is ok .
Flop bet is ok.
On turn I like a normal size bet.

Villains hand is a bit surprising since he didn't raise OTF but I still don't like your turn play. I would just make a normal size bet.

Make the flop bet bigger (it is < 50%). Then the turn AI is natural.
