Default 10NL QQ against big stack and calling station

Hi All,

After watching a lot of the videos on this site I took the advice from Trikkur to start posting in the forums to help improve my game. The videos have been a great help to me, keep up the great work! The CBet concept has improved my game beyond a reasonable doubt.

In any case, I wanted to post a hand that I really felt uneasy about. MP was a 49/10 and BB was a 55/4. (At that point I was under 30) My dilemma was that I felt that MP could afford to draw a flush on the turn and the river even with me leading out with strong value bets. I'd be interested to hear what you guys have to say.

Thanks a lot!
