How's the river reraise? Should I be raising more? Bet the turn?

It's just a raise, not a reraise. I like the turn check, but raise more on the river, I'd say to $40.

I would raise the river to 50 or 60.

I like the turn check. You're ahead almost always, but you might get a river call if you check it back. If the guy's tight enough that he won't call a river bet with QJ or whatever, then you might as well bet the turn and not give a free card.

i acutally like the min raise here, what is he calling to such a huge raise on the river?

What the hell are you hoping to get called by?

I'll leave villian to figure that out. The pot's a hundred dollars after we call. $40 on top isn't absurd.

My reasoning for the min-raise as opposed to a larger raise is that with his $12 bet, he's either super strong (trying to induce a raise) or pretty weak... not really in between. He's only calling (and likely reraising) a larger raise when he's ahead, but he still might call the min-raise with a weak hand.

And FWIW he called and had JJ.

Weaker queens and desperate/suspicious pocket pairs. Seriously-I'm not just being results oriented here-if you are not raising for value in this spot you have a leak in your game.
