Re: 10/25 tough river spot with JJ
 

jfish, I check-shove turn with 100bb stacks a decent amount but given stacks, c-c looks like the only play I can make with JJ.

yea i guess youre right. i just dont really like calling down at all.

if he raises larger on flop, would anybody like folding flop? would anybody fold turn as played ever?

Re: 10/25 tough river spot with JJ
 

when I used to play on UB a lot i thought boy was one of my toughest opponents. I usually call down here but I'm a station at times.

Re: 10/25 tough river spot with JJ
 

i kind of want to 3bet the flop here because his raise makes me feel like he doesn't want you to. i feel if he raised bigger it would get overpairs and draws to stack off better if he has a set. I kinda feel like he has a draw actually, so I feel like calling and 3betting are both ok, as long as you're c/r turn if draws miss. He might have made his raise size this way so that he can call a flop 3bet with a draw. Axss is certainly possible, but everything else missed, so as played I would call. I think i like c/r ai on the turn though.

one thing i am worried about with my line of thinking is that he has a set and wants to keep the pot smallish and see a safe turn before he takes you to vtown.

-i realize my post is confusing and i edited it lots of times because im retarded, but basically: I think he has a draw, 3betting flop and calling/cr safe turn are both fine and i am undecided between them

I 3b flop too

Re: 10/25 tough river spot with JJ
 

i know its becoming a lovefest, but boy is one of the toughest ive ever played.

Re: 10/25 tough river spot with JJ
 

ok so I learned to stay away from Boy.

to people in flop 3 bet camp, 140 bb really? only way to feel good about it is if he calls my 3bet with a draw, and bets a blank turn when checked to. I don't think he makes that kind of mistake too often for me to justify stacking of with JJ on that board with 140bb.
