Party $55: Level 2, JJ after LAG raiser and callers.

[Van Strummer]

UTG+2 is a pretty bad LAG raising 25% preflop, the two callers are new to me, but have been playing pretty loose.

I guess I should have just pushed in instead of the 1200 raise, but I am commited anyways so don't think it makes much of a difference. Standard?

Definitely push PF. Why agonize over an A, K or Q on the board OOP?

[aghasax]

I either push or fold this preflop. With your reads I push.

[Van Strummer]

Yes, I know I should have pushed preflop, but wondering if pushing JJ is standard here. Would you push anything lower?

[tigerite]

Yes, JJ is standard. No, I wouldn't push anything lower

[ouwep]

I push TT+, AK.

But I don't know if this is the correct range, mabey I should push wider: 88+, AQ+ ??

[Pocketbear]

Pushing is pretty standard here because of a LAG opener and it's clear that two cold-callers are not very extatic about their hands either. But JJ is at the very bottom of my range.

No, you shouldn't. Why push TT even? It's not that good. AQs is a maybe but TT no way.

Hum?
I think I push TT here. We have to believe we're ahead/at least flipping with a lag raiser and some weak callers here and there's a decent pot to be taken down.

[Q..]

There is no need to agonize on any board after this sort of raise with 3k pot and 700 chips left,just get the rest in on the flop, i guess any raise over 1000 here is technically same as push. I think its fine.
