Smells like AA/AK/KK, but those are the obvious answers, so the correct one is probably something else.

Default Re: Jack high!

First hand at the table. The only player I have a read on is the BB, who is a buddy with 73/43/1.7 numbers over a 250 hand sample. If that 1.7 postflop aggro number doesn't impress you, then you try being that aggressive when you're playing 3 out of every 4 hands. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

And now, why it is not -EV to post in the CO:

Dearest Micro Forum,

I love you guys. Seriously. I just think it's amazing how well this thread has worked, and how good everyone is at keeping it up. I love that this thread is getting perpetually restocked with bad beat posts and jack high overcalls that I can read when I just want to read something and smile. I love how this has kept all the good strategy visible on the front page so each hand can have a turn in the spotlight.

While I'm rambling, last week saw some really great content posted on the boards here. Especially now with the digest tracking the best posts, the Microposter session posts offering some great opportunities for the analysis of routine play, and the spectacular content that comes in every single day in the regular threads, this forum is really something else. I've read posts in the other forums from OOT to SS about people complaining about how that particular forum has gotten worse and worse. I say this one has never been better. It is quite a privilege to post here.

Keep seeting the bar high, guys.

--Matt
