Default The old minireraise: 225, get away from JJ?

I hate it when I am sitting with JJ or QQ and get miniraised by a seemingly solid player. What do you think, just keep calling?, push? fold?

Looks good. I don't know if I like the reraise preflop out of position. The pot will likely be 2 players anyway. The rest seems fine though.

WTF is up with his river check? Talk about a non-scary board. What a weirdo. If you're that afraid of sets it's gonna cost you a bundle.

hmm, guess I should have edited the hand to make the villian more aggressive post flop. Anyone folding if he bets bigger on flop and turn and pushing on river?

Say he bets 200 on flop, 350 on turn

Ok, I changed my post, Im going down with this ship by the way. I would probably check, the turn then push his raise all in.

Just read the results. This is precisely how BAD players play AA or air. Not really sure here if theres a better way to play with the villains raises and this board. Choosing to not raise PF would keep the pot/bets smaller and may allow you to fold on the river to a shove.

I just call the original open. Once he reraises I am playing pretty much for set value. Unfortunately he makes weak enough flop and turn bets that you can call. If he bet 300+ on the flop I fold. If he bets 500+ on the turn I fold.

I take it back...THIS is the most obvious preflop push of all time! Why are you retards suddendly going weak? An overpair is good enough most of the time to never justify a fold....ever!
