Default Re: $0.10 BB NL: JJ up against LAG - how to play?

I don't like the turn bet, because you've now put in about half your stack and are committed to the hand without getting any information really. He is LAG and limping on the button, so the range is very wide. Have you seen him showdown or lay down hands where he had min raised? Without a solid read on him minraising with air or less than a solid hand (trips in this situation), it's a tough spot. He probably doesn't have an overpair else he would raise PR or on the flop. And he seems perfectly ok with getting it all in. I'd probably fold this and restack and give him the opportunity to stack off in another spot. I really don't think you're good here. But IMO you check this turn and use your reads to determine whether to fold the turn or come over top. IME, the best way to neutralize LAGs is to keep from getting in tight spots and put them in them instead when they get out of line.
