Re: Reraise gone wrong

We make a large reraise because we're hoping to get him committed pre. With JJ we don't really want a call from him pre and then have to play the guessing game with an over card post flop OOP.

this is a pretty common mistake that ppl make. They are uncomfortable with awkward spots and therefore view them as -ev. If you reraise to 2k here and your opponent calls with a lot of his opening range, he is making a massively -ev mistake, provided you can play well enough post flop. Given that you have JJ tho and there will be roughly 1 pot sized bet left on the flop, it's pretty hard to play so bad that he can have an edge calling with most of his preflop range.

Ansky i'm a little confused about your post. Are you saying what hes done is massively incorrect, my reasoning for the reraise is incorrect, or both?
In the hand I c/f'd the flop, does that change anything in terms of what raise we should be making if i'm willing to release?
