Default Re: 22$ - early KJ in BB hits toppair

I think, I would have to let it go after that damn c/Minraise of UTG. The problem are not your odds, but the simple problem that no turn card will really make you lucky, even not a king or jack and playing that for stacks is so nasty, especially at this level where you will get a lot of edge a later.

So let it go, where you still have a nice stack. But make a note of UTG being very tricky (probably silly) and if MP3 gets it to showdown or to lay UTG the hand down, make a detailed note of this action.

BTW, of course, you couldn't lead out at this flop to clarify your situation thanks to the reverse implied odds and having not at least a backdoor flush, so check/calling is fine.

The idea of reraising the minraiser is not so bad as it sound, but better appropriate at the higher levels and with a read to villain, against average probably donk villain at 22s, it's just a waste.
