No history, I assume this is fine readless?

BB: $49.63
UTG: $49.33
MP: $20.13
CO: $27.40

Hero posts SB $0.10, BB posts BB $0.25

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero has Qc Qd

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to $0.50, Hero raises to $2.25, BB raises to $6.00, fold, Hero calls $3.75

Flop: ($12.50, 2 players) 5h 4s 5d
Hero checks, BB bets $43.63 and is all-in, Hero calls $20.02 and is all-in

Hero shows Qc Qd (Two Pair, Queens and Fives) (Pre 18%, Flop 8%, Turn 5%)

But some players are value raising worse though. I"d struggle to fold and I have been playing 25/50nl zoom over the past few weeks
Looking forward to making my first day 2

Have played almost 150k hands at 25nl zoom full ring and most 4bets, cold or not, are AA, KK or AK. (AK would tend to 4bet slightly larger as they hate to be flatted and not know what to do on this kind of flop). Not sure if players at 6max are 4betting cold with 10"s or JJ, but I would imagine that you would be more likely to be shown AA or KK. What makes this tricky, is that your 3bet looks light, following the button min raise. But you are in fact at the top of your range, so folding to a 4bet really sucks, but is probably the correct play. Folding in situations like this are made easier as there are so many good spots in these games (well full ring anyway), like getting players to over commit with hands like QQ when you hold KK.........( just kidding  ;) )
