QQ in a live game

Playing 5-10 with an occasional $25 straddle

Hero on the button with QQ (2400 effective), 2 limpers (who are massive fish), MP ($2k) makes it $75 we 3 bet to 275, limpers fold and he clicks back to $650

first time playing with a villain, Asian guy probably in his early 30s - wasn't a nit.

What are thoughts on jamming vs. flatting?

Jamming would be bad here IMHO. We are only going to get called by better hands. Maybe some AK.

Why not play hand in postion with 150bbs+ behind.

We are going to be able to make it tough on villian with postional advantage.

Haha, I ended up in this hand in a smaller stakes game and the villain turned up AA. (i got stacked)
pre flop play (1/2 live cash we each had 350ish behind)
him: raise 15 (standard raise)
me: three bet 30
him: four bet 115
me: shove

Call imo...

Your case was somewhat different but I think the general idea is the same. JJ or pocket 10's probably just flats your three bet or shoves I think... him four betting for value makes more sense for something like AA/KK. So basically the value hands of his range have you crushed (with the exception of AK) and you are just ahead of four bet bluffs which will fold to a shove.
