Big Pot, Out of Position with JJ

Moozh · #1 08-26-2006, 01:06 AM

Here's a hand that just went down that I'm nt happy with.

Villain is important... we're very deep and he has shown the ability to re-raise post-flop and make big bets and raises as well. He's pushed me off some other hands of similar strength before in pots not quite as large as this. I've also been playing fairly aggressive pre. Any suggestions at any point in this hand? If you have any questions about the situation, please ask. Thanks

I think your flop raise needs to be bigger. I'm all for smaller flop bets in reraised pots, but yours is less than half the pot. I'd make it 28ish.

Stats on villain? I'm really unsure what to do on the turn. If you've seen villain bet and raise a ton, have you seen him do it w/ a draw/weak hand? That might be what swayed my decision getting 3:1.

Don't check raise the flop.

Ask yourself what it accomplishes.
