Default Re: Flopped a set of Jacks

pre flop - JJ is the 4th best starting hand. If your not raising with this then what are you raising with?

flop - sweet

turn - you obv want to bet enough so you can go all in on the river, but you dont need to overbet to offer him incorrect odds to draw. A pot size bet would offer him 2:1, which is incorrect odds for an 8-outer, especially since you can fill up if the board pairs.

If you had of bet $10 and he called, your all in bet on the river would be roughly $26 into a $30 pot which is fine.

River - totally spewy card. If you had played in the way i mentioned i prob would have check/folded or put in a small blocking bet. As played, you are obv. pot committed so arrrrrin is fine.
