50nl, JJ in wierd spot in RR pot
 

This is my first orbit at table. I have never been in this spot before, The limp coldcall of my reraise made me think he had aces, but it would be unlikely on this board. Hmm, could he be doing this with AK?

I would fire a small bet on the turn, like 9.5. Preflop makes it seem like he's not so good and he would probably call with less than JJ here. As played, you can't call his bet.

[/ QUOTE ]whats the plan if he calls a bet on the turn?

Re: 50nl, JJ in wierd spot in RR pot
 

I'd lead the flop for the amount thac said. Checking both the flop and the turn widens his range but gives you no information about the strength of said range. This is one of the best flops you could possibly c-bet.

bet $10 on the flop... if he calls it is highly likely he has an ace... check fold the turn...

I disagree.

If this guy is going to limp call a 3bet, his calling range on flop is far wider than just an ace...

I like checking flop, maybe betting turn, but OP played it fine.

Re: 50nl, JJ in wierd spot in RR pot
 

Ah I misread villain was the open limper. What kind of range are you putting MP on limp-calling here? I still like to lead flop.

Re: 50nl, JJ in wierd spot in RR pot
 

This is a tough spot. I'm struggling to see a better line than hero's.

His range pf must be {22-TT, Axs+, ATo+, KQo+}. Surely JJ+ aren't in there. Hmmmmmm...that's not great news for us I don't think.

lol call turn?? That's a very odd looking bet size...looks like he's betting the scare 6, not the A.

Sorry, I'm clueless on this one.



Ahhh...I've just worked it out. Call turn, spike J on river. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
