Ok never played this guy before, so no reads. Um, this seems like an easy 3 bet to me, but after his min 4 bet I feel like I can't fold, but at the same time I feel like most players won't 4 bet without JJ+, AK, so I am playing for a set here, but not getting odds. Should I fold pf to his 4b, or just play it like I did, or cbet?

Bump.
I'd lean towards folding PF even though that seems weak.
Thoughts?

When I was playing, I actually lead toward folding pf too. I thought basically if his hand range is JJ+, AK, then I'm at best a coinflip and crushed most likely, and I can't shove, so my hand is being played for set value only. Bluffing is unlikely post flop cause he obviously likes his hand, so again, I think I'm playing strictly for set value and we are not deep enough to do that. The more I think about it the more I think I should have just folded pf and found a better spot. The minraise is just kinda frustrating.

well gospy ... u kinda answered your question with that second answer lol ... if u thought u should fold preflop and yet you still call ... i think your playing for set, but that $1 bet looks so enticing to call ... if he is going to let you see a showdown that cheap then i take it and hope to hit a J
