Default Right play with J9s in BB ? NL25

Villain is 13/2 after 50 hands, but his stats didnīt influence my decision.

UTG+1 ($24)
MP1 ($20.85)

fold. You have middle pair and a really bad draw. You're basically hoping to hit a Jack and against somebody that tight preflop he may have AK anyways. You're also going to get 3 bet regardless of what he has a ton of the time.

Sorry, no. I don't like the PF call at all. On the flop: villain is 13/2 so he is pretty nitty, right? If he raises PF and CBs on the flop I'd give him credit for a hand.
What kind of hand could he have that fits into his (narrow) PF raise range and not has you crushed and / or is good enough to continue with? I guess I wouldn't even play my donkey end of the straight draw cause he could have you easily dominated...

Why? It's really cheap to call and Villain is a super nit. We stack this guy a ton when we hit big and we lose nothing when we miss / hit one pair.

EDIT: Oh wait? Who's Villain, flop bettor or preflop raiser?

50 hands isnt a great sample, the read that your looking for is "nitty but stacks off with overpairs" (fairly common btw).

Also you would prefer to be multiway and more important - in position to make this call pre-flop.

Instafold the flop, we are ahead of nothing and could easily get stacked even if we hit a straight/2 pair/trips.

Yeah, but with only one villain in the hand I'd rather raise here if I decide to play this hand...
Personal taste I guess...

Edit: But with villain being so nitty, he might come over the top with a premium hand...Hm, let's just cut out my opinion about the PF play and say that I don't like the post flop play. Sorry, somehow I can't really write good responses today...

Guys, it's 4 way against (presumeably) bad players. It's 2 big blinds for us to call, we have a suited connector, and we have the best relative position AND we close the action. This is a must-call preflop.

[/ QUOTE ]If you don't know what to do on this flop I'd argue that it's a "must call".
