SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Q♥ Q♦

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, CO raises to 9 BB, BTN calls 9 BB, fold, fold, Hero ...

I have a choice here. Calling, shoving or 4-betting smaller. Versus one opponent behind me I'd actually just call this particular hand for range protection. (Yeah, I know, silly at the micros, but I am extremely silly :f_confused: )

I did shove. Is the shove obvious or are there merits to any of the other plays? I'd appreciate if you don't put all emphasis on the fact that this is the rock bottom micoros :)

Hello,

I would usually 4bet here to around 29-30bb and call a shove. This way we can afford to have a bluffing range and they can stack off lighter.
Shoving is not so bad as we do still get called by worse hands.

Best,
Plamen
