Default outdoing tommy, andy fox, and maybe even TxRedMan!

i get JJ today in the 1-2 at commerce. i raise mp, button who is loose passive 3 bets, short asian guy who is tight with raises and who folded 99 to a 3 bet in the sb earlier starts talking all cocky like to the button and saying stuff like whatre you gonna do if i 4 bet. he's relishing the moment i gather. then he 4 bets. i fold, getting 5 to 1 plus implied odds should i flop a set, but not caring because im certain im against AA or maybe KK and dont want to be bothered with such technicalities.

how bad is that?

you got me smiling. Tommy once asked "Do you control the cards or do they control you?"


May not be the best play but that isn't always the point.

4 bets is the cap in LA, no?

Yup, that's a pretty bad fold.

You have got one of them pegged on an overpair. So, your JJ is an extremely easy hand to play. You either flop a set and collect a big pot or you miss and fold.

JJ would be tougher to play where you can't put a guy so squarely on an overpair as then (a) you may not know that you should fold on a ten high flop or (b) you may not get much action when you flop a set.

yeah, that's bad, but this is badder:

"i get JJ today in the 1-2 at commerce. i raise mp, button who is loose passive 3 bets, short asian guy who is tight with raises and who folded 99 to a 3 bet in the sb earlier starts talking all cocky like to the button and saying stuff like whatre you gonna do if i 4 bet. he's relishing the moment i gather. then he 4 bets....im certain im against AA or maybe KK "

i call and fold for 1 bet on a 8 high flop, and see a third J slide off on the turn and not care.

this is the dope ass baddest:

i haven't played a hand in 3 hours and pretty stuck, "i get JJ. i raise mp, button who is loose passive 3 bets, short asian guy who is tight with raises and who folded 99 to a 3 bet in the sb earlier starts talking all cocky like to the button and saying stuff like whatre you gonna do if i 4 bet. he's relishing the moment i gather. then he 4 bets...im certain im against AA or maybe KK "

i call and fold for 1 bet on a 8 high flop, only to see two AK's chop on the river unimproved and not care.

the middle one would not bother me. it'd make me laugh a little. the last one would bother me, but i read hands pretty well so it's not too likely.
