I concur

Re: How can I hae played this better
 

Raise the flop, shove the turn... c/c the river.

Re: How can I hae played this better
 

This guy is pretty tight and is reraising preflop.

So I don't think he will call a raise with any worse hands, so is there any point in raising?

Why risk losing chips with him outdrawing you? Take it down preflop, and if he calls you can extract more value flop, turn, river.

Raise PF to 600. I don't care what his stats are, 22 hands isn't enough.

On the flop you should be raising too. I usually bet out there big because I want to price out the FD and the pot would already be big (possibly AI if the pot was like 2000). The C/R isn't bad either, but you gotta be sure a villian is betting.

Don't be weak tight.

Re: How can I hae played this better
 

Raise PF. You're OOP, and you want to end the hand quickly.

I like the flat call on the flop. If you raise, what is he calling you with? He either has 3 or 0 jacks.

I hate the river blocking bet. What is he calling with that you beat? Maybe TT.

Your overall line in this hand is weak. This hand should have been posted in the High Stakes forum, where you would've gotten better advice. Raising the flop is incorrect here, even though most of the responses tell you to do that.
