    Multitabling so not sure how active op is. Quick opr suggested he was a winning player and new what he was doing.
    My question is am I just calling here to set mine?
    Can I fold preflop? I hate just check folding flops with Queens.
    If it comes 10 high should I be check calling/check folding?

    These spots always get me into trouble so your thoughs would be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    with the stacks these deep i prolly just flat pre..

    i´m pretty much done with this hand on that board, t high board is a tricky one cause u underrept your hand pre..

    i prolly would go for the c/c on the T hig board

    Flatting pre is cool...

    But assuming his range here is TT+, AK, you only beat 2 of his 5 possible hands (6 if you include the other QQ). Hence, it's a fold.

    If you can widen his range to the point that it could include 99 and AQ, it's a check/raise, but that is very unlikely against a standard winning player.

    And again in the Million! Took a different line on the flop this time. Thoughts?

    How many streets are people calling on with a 10 high board for example?

    Obviously this depends on bet sizing etc but are people happy to check fold?
