Or so you think?!?!

Blinds at 4/8, 8 handed, approaching last 5 hands of the evening.

You’re UTG with QQ. :) Despite your better judgment, you elect to slow play the hand in the hopes of building the pot and cashing big.

Or so you think?

You decide to limp (w/ $75 back). Folded to DB, he limps (TAG w/ $40 back), SB calls (ROCK w/ $150 back) and BB checks (LAG has everyone covered).

Flop comes 7-9-9 rainbow.

SB Checks, BB bets out $15, you immediately put BB on 2 pair (7s + 9s), and so you go over the top in the hopes of isolating BB one-on-one.

Or so you think, Again?

DB shoves it, SB goes over the top and BB insta-calls. WTF?!?! ??? Could I have played this differently and get a different result?

EDIT:

I was dead on BB and shows K7s
UTG shows QQ
DB shows AA
SB reveals 77

Turn: A
River: x

I don't believe I could knowing that even if I open with a raise to $20. I would have gotten a call from either DB and/or SB. Should I have folded my high PP PF?!?!? That's just sick!!!

    With only 10BB before the flop, there is not much room for creativity here. There are really only three options, call and risk losing it all to limpers, all-in and only take the $12 in blinds, or what I would do which would be to raise it to $28 pre-flop and hope for a caller. At which point there should not be as much risk you losing, then push all-in on the flop.

    Lets be serious, all your money is going in on this hand, well, unless an A or K comes out on flop, then you can save money by just calling. This is the best way to minimize risk and maximize profit.
