3 Way Pot QQs
25 NL Blitz ACR:
Late position facing a shove 3 way with QQs I'm 100 BBs deep. MP 100 BBs deep and LP Shortie both are getting ready to battle. LP is short to about 35 BBs.
Generally I always feel in this pool shoves are AAs/KKs/sometimes AK and rarely QQs/JJs. But to my surprise they turn over JJs/TTs. Optimal for me but of course the short stack flops a set like usual when facing variance. Fortunately I chop the pot up to my benefit somewhat.
Should I ever be laying down QQs when I feel pool is nitty enough to only be shoving QQs better? I mean sometimes with stats like 13/11/3 I feel Pool is RB/Leaderboard Grinding and AAs and sometimes KKs are the only thing in there 3-bet-4bet-shove range. (I have some extreme nits tagged, or I encounter them and good lord it's a nightmare when I'm right every single time but I feel shouldn't be a nit myself)
Also I suppose I shouldn't be in this field.

Who raised, 3b or shoved? If the shortstack 3b shove first you can shove over.
In my opinion, yes there are spots to lay down QQ, and I wouldn't be using a calculator for that, I would look at how nitty he is and know he has KK,AA.
