Pocket Queens is actually the hand I went OUT on in the last WSOP event I played in.... I was doing great and had a huge stack in front of me, but I got Q-Q the same hand that the chip leader got A-A... Damn! Oh well.Anyway, here's a quick look at the strategy for these types of hands...Step 1. Decide whether or not to play them aggressively. Just because you pick up a pocket pair does NOT automatically mean you should play the hand to win no matter what.There's always a good chance someone has a HIGHER pocket pair than you (like when I ran into Aces).Also, you don't want to get crazy when you've got bad positioning, like under the gun.If you choose NOT to play aggressively, then you can shift into "aggressive mode" after the flop if you sense you have the best hand or if you hit trips.Remember, positioning is everything. Consider playing much more aggressively (and possibly stealing the pot pre-flop) when you've got late positioning.Step 2. If you play aggressively pre-flop, try to narrow the field down to one or two callers.Like I said, watch out for higher pocket pairs. You'll most likely get called from someone with a lower pocket pair or two face cards.Step 3. Represent the flop. If there are "scary" cards out there (i.e. you have T-T and the flop hits A-3-K) then just give up on the hand and don't throw away chips.If you represent the flop but your opponent goes right back over the top of you, then consider just cutting your losses.You can win ten big hands a night but RUIN it all by losing one big hand. So know when to muck your cards.Of course... if you hit your trips on the flop, it's PAY DAY!
