Re: Checking it down headsup in potential JP situation.

Player B asked an innocuous question, and got two free cards for it? Good move on his part.
Unless this is a room whose jackpot (1) allows one-legged hands to play, and (b) counts AAATT as a qualifying hand, it appears that the BBJ isn't even possible. Yet Player A is willing to check down his monster? I want to play at his table.

At least in most Los Angeles area casinos, an ace on the turn or river and the 5th card jack or lower would trigger the jackpot...aces full of tens beaten by quads. Since the pp is not that likely to stack off, depending on the size its not a bad strategy to check down out here. In addition the only advantage to fixed drops in LA is that the jackpot dollar is already dropped on the flop, hence no minimum pot is needed for the jackpot to trigger.
