    The only thing gay in this hand is turning QQ into a bluff. Don't three bet here unless you plan on getting it in. ez game.

    You are wayyy too deep to 3bet pre here. He will fold all hands that you beat, but 4bet KK AA and sometimese AK. If you flat, you can induce a squeeze in LP from a worse hand or simply play postflop with a disguised overpair. I think if you 3b you have to feel comfortable getting it in, but with 40bbs in a tourney with a great structure this just seems bad/spewy. In conclusion: Frat pre, as played fold
