Confused JJ

mojobluesman · #1 04-24-2007, 04:24 PM

I'm pretty sure I played this hand badly, but I'm not sure how it should have been played.

I probably should have just lead out on the flop, but I check raised.

I lead out on the turn because I figured I might get a QQ and KK to fold and if he had AA or AK he would probably raise and I could safely fold.

When he called, I was totally baffled by what he had.

Just cap preflop. Reads?

Yes leading the flop is much better hear. Whats your read on villin?

If hes LP or SLAP this could be 99's easly.

When you check the flop i think alot of SLAPS an LP's just bet if they have connected in any way or have a big ace.

Looks like hes just calling with a small pair the bet on the river could be the third nine or again just betting cause you checked.

i like the R(means cap) B B B line withis hand HU with a possible B/f on the turn

His stats were TAG, but I only had about 50 hands or so.

Do I call the river?

I can't think of many hands I have beat. I usually cap preflop with JJ, but HU I tend to back off a little on some of my capping hands (JJ and AK) because I find that I'm behind 3-bettors too often.

SomthingOrOther · #5 04-24-2007, 04:34 PM

Yes call the river no way your beat >6/7 times

this is 22-66 enough of the time

although im afraide he might show you qq or KK also

He 3-bet pre-flop. What could he possibly have that doesn't have me beat. 99, TT, QQ, KK, AA, AK all have me beat JJ is a split, but very unlikely. Plus he called my turn bet when the A fell.

SomthingOrOther · #7 04-24-2007, 04:38 PM

2's, 4's 5's 7's 8's K10s KQs KQo

IDK on second thought that river call may be a little tougher then when i firt looked at it.

caping PF and leading the flop would have been alot better

why we need reads, whats his PFR and VPIP?

has he 3-bet alot? what hands has he showed down?

calling the turn could seriously be 22's in some cases.

He was on the TAG side, but I had a limited sample. To me, anyone that 3 bets pre flop, calls a check raise, and then calls a bet when an Ace falls either has my JJ beat or is a horrible player and I saw no evidence he was horrible.
