Default Re: The hardest spot in micro stakes poker? JJ from the SB

[ QUOTE ]
I like a check on the flop. Bet / fold is really turning the JJ into a bluff (i.e. you may as well have 3bet with T5o and then bet / folded the flop).

[/ QUOTE ]

if our 3bet pf gets called and an A hits I'd assume we are beat (without reads that villain calls 3bets light). So it's only a question of:

are we going to give up and c/f? Or are we taking a stab and try to make QQ,KK fold.

Sure we are bluffing with JJ but there is no other way to win the pot - we can not act like in WA/WB and call down to SD. If we can assume that villain is able to fold KK, QQ (which he should be) then we should cbet. If we have a read he is loose, floats in big pots, doesn't give up pairs with overcards on the flop then c/f would be best.
