JTs vs a reraise

NinaWilliams · #1 05-26-2006, 01:38 PM

My friend just showed me this hand, and I was pretty stumped as to how to play it.

Effective stacks are $200. 1/2 NL 5 handed

Preflop UTG folds, Hero raises to $7 with J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], CO reraises to $17, both blinds fold here calls.

Flop T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Hero checks, CO bets $35, hero calls

Turn 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Hero checks, CO bets $80, hero folds.

I fold the flop, but would be tempted to fold PF as well.

Fold the flop.

Being OOP, folding to the pre-flop raise isn't horrible.

I would lead the flop and shut down if villain exhibits any further aggression. This is not a hand that I want to invest a significant portion of my stack in.

Flop is an easy fold. If you call preflop its to hit two pair or better, maybe a huge draw. You want a hand to stack villain with. TP is not likely to be good here.

Checkraise flop all in.

Nah, just kidding.

Basically it comes down to a read, but I don't like the play. With top pair, bet into the raiser, I don't like the check.
