Re: JJ against EP raiser
 

Tyler,

Villain would have to be playing a pretty spazzy AK given the board and his previous action. I'm not quite buying it.

Re: JJ against EP raiser
 

you don't think someone with (poorly defined) LAGgish tendencies is capping QQ/KK/AA preflop?

discount those holdings a little, and just add a *few* times when he's getting spazzy with AK and you've got a solid value cap.

I haven't long sat down in this game. I only have a handful of hands on villain but he's played a third and raised half of them. What concerns me is the flop raise. Good or bad? I'm thinking that worst case I get the other guy to fold and increase my chances down the track if I'm behind. I call the turn because I picked up a gutshot, and the river because AT, a lower pair or an AK that is bluffing are possible

As I stated in another thread, you call on the river due to size of the pot. You have to consider what the pot is laying you. If the pot is tiny then of course you'll fold more readily. In this case it's easy, you call. I will say that IMO you're a big dog on the river but the pot is laying you a great price.

I think the hand was well played. You don't haven't played enough with Villian here to get a good read, but still played well. I like how you slowed down on the turn and river. That is a problem I sometimes have.
