folding QQ preflop

Ok, but why such a big size for cold 4bet? The "cold" 4bet is different, you have less fold equity, and this big size makes the things even worse. Someone can shove with AK, but you still can't call. You will have AA, KK , AK I guess, maybe AQs, maybe even AJs or KQs..Do you like this size with those hands? I mean this is 3.5x 4bet...And after will be difficult to fold vs 5bet...

I go 20BB usually. I have no idea why I made it 22BB.

I think 16bb is fine...Still you have FE. And easy fold vs 5bet...Vs this size for 4bet, the people will be more motivated to play fold or shove...But you have good hand , you should see the flop time to time. With this line...Because you will fold vs the 3bettor as well..Vs 5bet...I mean give them odds to call..Give this guy his adventure..Calling "small" size IP, seems cool...

4Bet sizing could be smaller indeed, but read less it's tough to fold QQ at a short handed table.
