Default NLCASH 1/2 - JJ overpair shove for 125 BBs

Villain has been beating on me for about an hour. He has been betting a lot but I have been calling down damn near all of them in second place. Either I have really bad luck with calling down the wrong hands or he just is getting sick hands and not getting out of line much.

Full Tilt Poker Game #3550442853: Table Lion (heads up) - $1/$2 - No Limit Hold'em - 14:23:09 ET - 2007/09/13
Seat 1: lukynumber7 ($250.25)
Seat 2: xSCWx ($358.15)

xSCWx posts the small blind of $1
lukynumber7 posts the big blind of $2
lukynumber7: i cant believe u had that
The button is in seat #2
xSCWx: i hit that flush lol

*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to xSCWx [J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]]
xSCWx raises to $6
lukynumber7 calls $4

lukynumber7 has 15 seconds left to act
lukynumber7 raises to $166
xSCWx has 15 seconds left to act
xSCWx has requested TIME
lukynumber7: ill pay jacks
Hero shoves (villain has 78.25 behind).


This standard? I figure worst case scenario he has a set, best case scenario he has a combo draw. Is it feasible for me to actually be ahead at this point?

PS: That jacks comment makes me feel like I'm beat as well but I didn't feel right laying down jacks on a flop like this.

I would expect him to shove over your 3 bet with a draw but he only re-raised smallish. That and the comment makes me very wary but I am very bad at folding overpairs although I am sure it is correct here.

Hah, I would just fold out of respect to him dead-bolting my hand.

How does he know what you have? What has been happening?

Was he saying he had the other 2 jacks? People are notoriously lazy with punctuation, and

I'll pay jacks

is very different from

I'll pay, jacks

He did that on a few hands where he clearly didn't have enough information, and he seemed to RUTHLESSLY bet onto me if I had air or draws, but I figure it is more likely that he just made some good guesses than it is that he actually had a way of cheating.

If I was cheating I'd certainly be playing higher than 1/2. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I think the difference between folding or pushing in this spot is minimal. but folding is much lower variance.

But forget about that. the important thing for you to do is to get up and leave the table.

I shove here but I am a calling station. Looks like you are up against villain who is capable of doing this on a draw.

If this is right, then you're either way behind or flipping= ez fold
