PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG ($30.15)
MP ($75.20)
CO ($35.55)
Hero ($25)
SB ($9.50)
BB ($26)

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG raises to $0.5, MP calls $0.50, CO raises to $1.25, Hero calls $1.25, 2 folds, UTG calls $0.75, MP calls $0.75.

Flop: ($5.35) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4 players)
UTG bets $1.25, MP folds, CO calls $1.25, Hero calls $1.25.

Turn: ($9.10) 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)
UTG bets $4, CO folds, Hero calls $4.

River: ($17.10) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
UTG bets $5.25, Hero calls $5.25.

UTG is 67.5/32.5/2.5 oer 80 hands. I lost half a stack to him, when he minraised preflop, I 3bet with KQo, he c/r me on a K-high rainbow flop, underbets turn with 1/4-1/3pot. I push and he calls with AA.
CO is 46/19/2.1 over 140 - no other reads than that.

In this case I'm more than lost. I call preflop mainly with the intention of set mining and taking down c-bets from AK on good boards. When CO calls UTGs Bet I doubt he got a Monster PP, so my JJ might be good, but then I completely lost track of what should be the right line.

3bet PF with premium hands, you don't really want to see a flop 3 ways. Raise the flop, you don't want to see any overcards on the turn, and you very likely have the best hand.

Agreed, i like to 3bet PF in this spot with JJ.

Fold or reraise preflop, this is a pretty good spot to kind of "value squeeze".

CO could have a wide range and be isolating and may fold, and UTGs range is pretty wide anyway.

Then on this board, you'd want to raise a UTG donk and going broke with JJ isn't bad. Infact, its a dream flop IMO.

The way you played it, i'd probably like to raise the turn - Protect from any draws and outs he has, A/K/Q can also mean you lose or miss alot of value.
