JJ in CO - getting donked by unknown
I don't have any stats on these guys all I can say is that BB felt a bit loose pre-flop and hadn't made an impression either way post-flop. Not aggro but not scared or passive.
Might also be worth knowing that I had raised a couple of hands earlier and let go on boards with no A or K.

Re: JJ in CO - getting donked by unknown
Why wouldn't he check-raise here if he was pulling something or wanted to represent more strength? Maybe he's scared of having is JT checked through. I doubt I can let this one go though. I may just call down. I do see the appeal of the free showdown. Do you think you can safely fold to a 3-bet?

Usually your losing, but sometimes your not.

Re: JJ in CO - getting donked by unknown
I used to call down here, but I think a free showdown raise is better to put pressure on the SB. A lot of the time bb picked up a straight or flush draw so youre most likely ahead.

Re: JJ in CO - getting donked by unknown
My impulse is to fold. However, against unknowns I typically stick to a call down policy. Here I like a raise to get it HU for a free showdown. I would fold to any river action though, and a 3 bet from anyone on the turn makes it an easy fold for me too.

Re: JJ in CO - getting donked by unknown
not an easy fold. We still have 2 outs to J's and 4 outs to T's if the guy has a Q. My vote is to call and re-evaluate.

Re: JJ in CO - getting donked by unknown
He could have a made straight, but it's not too likely, since you have 2 jacks.
Pop this [censored], man. Calling is absolutely the wrong play. There are too many hands that SB can have that we want to charge. We have an easy fold to a 3-bet. The real question would be how to handle the river if you're A) donked or B) checked to. |
Re: JJ in CO - getting donked by unknown
Yup, that was my conclusion... after the hand was over. At the time I called and SB folded. River came A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and BB check-folded when I value-bluffed.
