25NL JJ, blind vs. blind situation
Villain in this hand is TAG, or at least so say the stats. Hasn't been too out of line, seems ok. Two questions in this hand, 1) should I 4-bet this preflop? and 2) is donking the flop the best play here? I really don't like c/c here, check raise is spew, and c/f seems weak.

I like 3betting it a bit more pf and betting 4$ on the flop (the you played it) or 5 (the way I would play it with a pot approx: 7$).

I like 4betting it then and fold to a push.

I like the preflop call, but just c/f this. If he bluffs you out, oh well, you lost not even 1/5 of a buyin. |

Is this not a profitable situation against a TAG? Even if he has KK or QQ, there's generally no way he raises that flop, and he might even fold. Obviously, if he calls or raises, I'm done with this hand unless I spike a J on the turn. |

It's not BAD, you can just find better spots.

Re: 25NL JJ, blind vs. blind situation
Theres 2 options, 1) 3-bet that and be ready to go all in (i guess villain has a little pocket pair or maybe AK) or 2) play it like you did and if hes raising the flop fold, if he calls check the turn.

Re: 25NL JJ, blind vs. blind situation
Don't donk that flop. If you had AK here would you ever do that? No you never would, you'd want him to cbet. C/f flop man. I like the way you played it, even though its bvb, he can have a hand also. It sucks to just cf such a strong hand but you're so behind here its not even funny. QQ/KK and big As are a huge part of his range.
