QQ against passive player
I may be overthinking this a little, it doesn't seem so complicated at first, but it got me wondering. The point is that the player is extremely passive, so what is he raising me with on the flop? It can only be a set, I conclude. He would probably have 4-bet me with KK and AA, there is no way he is calling the 3-bet with any hand that makes two pair, so he must have a pp 33, 55 or 88. Of course, he could be raising with 99, TT, JJ, but I honestly think that this player type would just call the flop with these overpairs, never re-raise (except possibly with JJ), especially considering how strong I look pre-flop. The fact is that this degree of betting strength always seems to indicate the nuts, or pretty much the nuts. The other fact is that it is easy to make money off this type of player over all the other hands where he doesn't have the nuts, so should my strategy be to make incredibly tight folds in this type of situation, or at least consider the option, as unlikely as it seems I am beaten?
