NL10 - JJ and tricky turn decision
 

Hey all,

Haven't played any poker for about a month now so thought I'd try a few hands at NL10 to ease me back into it when this happens:
Comments on all streets appreciated!

Villain is 17/4.6/0.8 over approx 200 hands

SB: $21.90
BB: $18.75

CO: $9.20
Hero (BTN): $29.90

Preflop: Hero is dealt J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, MP calls $0.10, CO folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $0.50</font>, SB calls $0.45, 2 folds

Flop: ($1.20) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)

What's so tricky about this decision? I don't want to lose 230BB with an overpair on a coordinated 3-straight board against a rather passive player. Just fold.

And: the flop is somewhat drawy, villain can hold many draws / overcards I'd bet closer to pot size / full pot.

fold on turn. the read you gave on this player tells me he has a set, so fold. Maybe you should even fold the flop given this read, but i assume a call is not bad at all against possible AT hands... I still would call for one more card.

Yeah cheers. Its funny, looking back on this you're right - i guess this isnt a tricky decision. Still a bit of rust to get rid of on the NL10's :-P

overbet pushes are almost always the nuts (at NL 10 anyway). Funnily enough, people still call when I do it. This guy probably got his stack by playing nitty and getting some idiot to call his push in an earlier hand. Don't be that idiot.
