    Not sure what to do here Flat or reraise. If reraise do we fold to a 4 bet.

    Villian had been raising couple times a round.

    3 bet/call shove or just shove... you have an M of like 6.5... your going all the way with QQ here 100% of the time.

    Big stack's opening range here is well below QQ.

    I say you repop to 75000 or so, and if he pushes in, you have to call. If he's shown to be raising quite frequently, he could be on a heater sure, but its more than likely he's stealing with decent hands. If he shoves he COULD have you beat pre, but he's also pushing with AQ+ and TT and JJ.

    No way you can fold to a reraise, if he's go you beat pre, its a cooler, sucks, but I'm not folding QQ this deep in a tourney like this unless theres a shitload of action in front of me

    Shove or 3 bet/call. I'd probably rather shove as a 3 bet would look alot stronger. I'm probably shoving like 88/99+, AQ+, fwiw. (can't really decide what my cut off is, 88 or 99).

    If you flat-call, what would you do if someone behind comes over the top?

    With your stack size, I'd insta-shove here. You should be happy to pick up the 48K if your play causes the big stack to fold, and to (usually) double up when it doesn't.

    I hate the 3 bet/call. Go all in with a smile.
