PokerStars - $0.02 NL (9 max) - Holdem - 9 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (CO): $2.00
BTN: $3.06
SB: $0.87
BB: $5.53
UTG: $3.15
UTG+1: $2.00
MP: $6.98
MP+1: $2.00
LP: $2.00

SB posts SB $0.01, BB posts BB $0.02, MP+1 posts DB $0.02

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.05) Hero has Q♥ Q♣

UTG raises to $0.08, fold, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to $0.24, fold, fold, fold, UTG calls $0.16

Is it a good idea to 3bet QQ to an utg raise? Since there isn't much that a sensible player would raise from that position

He's playing NL2, you have no stats on him, how can you say he is sensible?

Anyway jokes apart, Ideal raising range from UTG (sensible player) would be AA,KK,QQ,JJ,TT,AK.


       Equity     Win     Tie
UTG+2  47.63%  46.25%   1.38% { TT+, AKs, AKo }
MP1    52.37%  50.99%   1.38% { QQ }

Had he had only AA,KK,QQ,AK and assuming he is sensible he'd 4-Bet you or shove since he is out of position already and wouldn't want to enter the flop with a disadvantage. So I think you're good to go with your QQ 3-Bet here. Had he raised further or shoved you could fold.

Hello Duchesst,

Nah, seems to be fine and I wouldn't mind. He definitely is capable of calling with a lot worse hands there. :)

Best Regards.
