    Blinds are 1000 2000 with 20 to go in the 163 on Full Tilt last night bubble burst with 45 people left no big reads on table here is the situation:

    hero in BB 62k
    utg +3 17k
    button 79k

    utg +3 shoves for 17k and button smooth calls the 17k. Hero in the BB with QQ. Is this an insta shove situation with the button smooth calling?? Or does hero call and shove the flop when no A or K comes on the flop???

    Calling and check/folding when an ace or a king flops means that you still go broke to AA/KK on low boards.

    QQ crushes everything else.

    If you have a ridiculous read that the button will only ever flat here to trap with AA/KK then fold. But this read would have to be spot on, and it would be rare for you to have such a solid read. Ship it in.

    UL, GG.
