[NLTRN] JJ with Q-high flop

No need to sharkscope here, the guy raised to 100 preflop at the 10-20 level.


AJ would be a tough call here, JJ though is insta calling.

Care to explain how does that raise to 100 affect on your decision making?

[ChicagoRy]

I won't put a number on it but most people I've played that raise to 100 PF are usually doing it with low PPs and weak aces.

That plus he's stupid enough to spew to a 5x raise preflop tells me all I need to know about his game as far as being a winner or loser.

And you checked the flop, at the 10s you get pushed on a lot by any aggressive player when checking the flop in a 3-bet pot, people get nervous in big pots and seem to think they can buy pots.

You'll see a queen here sometimes, but not a whole lot, it's usually T9 at best.

Good points and observations ChicagoRy. After I reread that hand, I seem to have got the positions wrong. I didn't mention that check at the flop for some reason. Corrections: You're looking weak when you check the flop so I think he may be shoving with a lot of hands. JJ is better than his range most of the time so you've got to call against an obviously bad player. You could fold if you think your opponent could valueshove in this situation with pair of queens or better because he thinks you wouldn't suspect he has a good hand if he overbet shoves.

That's exactly why I checked the flop: I wanted him to bluff.
If I bet the flop, I think I'll only get called by AQ, KK, AA en TJ.

insta call. i almost always see complete trash (A3) here, or often middle pair

i like rypac's read here. A-rag and small pairs look like a big portion of his range to me too.
