Default Re: 1/2 JJ 3-handed

I would bet again. It's possible SB has a big draw. Or maybe he planned to checkraise a 9 on the flop and then went ahead and carried through even though the action was heavier than he anticipated (and then, after no one folded, maybe he got scared on the turn).

I'll admit I would be tempted to check it through, though. It's entirely possible SB has trips (or better) and simply loves to checkraise. If he checkraised again on the turn, I guess I would probably tell myself I should fold and then start calling down instead. (Who knows? Maybe he loves to checkraise and doesn't have trips. Maybe he's just desperately trying to buy the pot with pocket 2's.)

In any case, I think MP1 is less of a concern than SB, at this point. Although MP1 may have called SB's check/3-bet with the plan of popping the turn, you'd think that if he has a monster hand he'd go ahead and bet once SB checked again. If MP1 did checkraise the turn I think I'd fold. But I'm not expecting him to checkraise.
