Re: outdoing tommy, andy fox, and maybe even TxRedMan!
I really have no clue why some of you guys think that folding preflop is just a marginal error. If Mike has this guy pegged on AA/KK, then IMO it's a big error to fold JJ. The argument that you might get sucked in for bets postflop is not a reason to fold preflop. Postflop, you will make decisions based on the situation presented to you at that time. The fact that you may make good decisions postflop and yet go on to lose more money (because you miss) does not make calling preflop an error.
It's okay to chase, boys and girls.
Geez, good thing I put a comma in that last sentence but I digress...
If you are worried about getting sucked in postflop, just go ahead and fold on every Jackless flop even if the situation then begs for a call. Doing that will be a smaller error than folding preflop.
Heck, you could probably tell yourself that you will fold even if the flop comes KJx or AJx and still be better off than folding preflop.
