Default TT early in UB 200k

UTG (obeidman) raises to 70 (pot) at 10/20, unk flats from MP, i flat from the cutoff, blinds fold.

Flop JJ2 with a draw, checks to me, i bet 160 into 240, UTG folds, MP calls.

Turn 6o, he checks, I bet 350 into 450, he calls after some thought.

River 3o he checks I shove for 1600 into 1200. He covers by a smidge.

Is unk like a known player or something?

I like a bigger bet on the turn to make this shove good. As played, I like 800 on the river.

I would guess a bet of more 500-700 & be folding to a push. Lower pr`s will call this & the J will get the money in & ur still alive ! ( obv` against an unknown )

Thats the way i like to play but, many would be getting it in on T`s, ... MTTs are not my game but the less times ur all in the better imo

I don't like the shove because I don't think you're getting called here often, and based on the way the hand played out you're definitely way ahead of him. I'd much prefer a bet of about 550 to try and maximize you're value vs. 77/88.. chances are he just had a flush draw and is going away anyways though

Are you trying to get AA/KK/QQ to fold?

They almost never do.

I think you have way too much showdown value to shove the river.

I agree... I think you check behind on river, unless of course you don't value playing this tourney.

Goggles,

Oh this is definitely for value and to get it out of precisely sevens, eights, or nines. I don't think we get looked up by them facing a shove.

To be honest I'm scared of J9s, J10s or QJ here, who is playing tight and scared early in fear of a boat or KJ/AJ.

I think the river push might be too thin, I highly doubt we get called by worse...but I have to admit I don't know villain too much so it's not horrific.

Yea I think its a value shove as well.

I don't recognize villian but I'm pretty sure I only like 2 bets going in here. My default would be check turn and VTown river but I think I like turn better. On the river bet looks more like value and more likely to fire a second bullet on the turn.

Gators,

I wouldn't worry all that much about dude having a bigger jack.
