SB: $1.01 (50.5 bb)
BB: $2.02 (101 bb)
UTG: $2.18 (109 bb)
MP: $2.03 (101.5 bb)
Hero (CO): $2.03 (101.5 bb)
BTN: $2 (100 bb)

Preflop: Hero is CO with Q Q
UTG raises to $0.06, MP folds, Hero calls $0.06, BTN folds, SB raises to $0.10, BB folds, UTG calls $0.04, Hero raises to $2.03 and is all-in, SB calls $0.91 and is all-in, UTG folds

Flop: ($2.14) 3 5 9 (2 players, 2 are all-in)
Turn: ($2.14) A (2 players, 2 are all-in)
River: ($2.14) T (2 players, 2 are all-in)

Results:

Spoiler

$2.14 pot ($0.11 rake)
Final Board: 3 5 9 A T
SB showed 7 7 and lost (-$1.01 net)
Hero showed Q Q and won $2.03 ($1.02 net)

so Pre flop I really need to explain my play

SB is unknown and UTG is a 28/21 23WTSD on 252 hands

So when I decide to 4bet shove I'm just isolating myself against the fish

Also I know none of them has KK or AA in his pocket because they would otherwise just JAM preflop and they simply don't

So, when UTG calls SB minraise I'm pretty sure I want to get isolated with that midstack fish and I decide to shove it all so he has a super wide range that I'm just beating on showdown at percentage

something like this should show up


       Equity     Win  Pareggio
MP2    27.66%  26.77%     0.89% { QQ-55, AJs+, KQs, AQo+, KQo }
MP3    72.34%  71.45%     0.89% { QQ }

Do you guys agree with my line? what would you do?

He, that turned out well!

I am not sure though about your preflop play. Would you really only call QQ on set value? I'd go for 3bet/fold, as many players know that we dont 3bet lightly vs UTG (exploitible strategy though...)
