    About 500 or so left from 2500 runners. I've been playing TAG and opponent has been fairly active, and has made some aggressive plays, but with no showdowns. This hand was the first hand right after the 3rd break, and I just got back to my pc with about 5 seconds left on my clock. I saw QQ and frantically hit the raise button before I timed out, so it was only a min raise, but then I get min reraised....

    How do I respond to him min reraising my original min raise? I figure lets see a flop and if no A or K then it's likely I'm good. So I checked the flop knowing he would bet and of course he did. Good play on my part, or bad? I mean, if I lead and he repops it, can I ever fold here? Or am I better off going for the check raise?

    Just unlucky. If you put in a good raise pre and he 3 bets are you folding?
