Default Trip Jacks against TAG on flushing board

B&M $2/5 $500 max NLHE. Table is loose-passive to LAG. Villain is TAG with about $1200, my image is LAG with about $600.

Two early limpers, I raise to $25 from MP1 with JsJc. One caller in LP, then from BB villain reraises to $75. I smooth call.

Flop if Jd-4d-8d.

Villain leads for $50, I smooth call.

Turn is 3s, villain leads for $75.

Best line here?

You sure do like getting JJ dont you?


Been in this situation more times than I wouldve liked. Funny thing is that I havent seen too many people betting a made flush like this. Usually they have one ace or King of the same suit and are drawing or have top pair, 2 pair, or trips.

Occasionally you see people with a low flush leading out like this, but you said he was a TAG so it's unlikely he was playing 5d6d or something similar.

I think you're ahead here and if he isnt slow playing a big flush, you still have outs. Put in a raise.

The sizing on those bets looks very suspicious to me...

Going into the flop there is about $200 in the pot, and he bets $50, followed by $75 into the $300 pot on the turn... those are sized like value bets.

Personally with JJ I would have re-raised him on the flop to find out where I was... calling is cutting you off from possible information, if you can't get a read on the guy.

Best line here is to bet that this thread gets locked or moved to Small or Medium Stakes NLHE forum real soon.

call/evaluate river since you didn't raise Flop and you're getting nice odds.

Move to full ring forum please.

Raise flop to $200.

As played, call again on the turn.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Turns out he WAS betting a made flush (reraised me preflop with AdTd; I guess given my image I shouldn't have been surprised).

Fourth jack hit on river. Oddly, he open pushed hi nut flush into the newly-paired board and I stacked him.
