Depends, is he that aggressive guy who keeps betting if you call? Then call and let him bet the turn for you to reraise allin!

If he's quite passive, push it now, hope for AA, KK or something like that. I wouldn't be afraid of anything, really.

But then I play NL4, hah

He is not that aggressive. I figured his raise means one of these three things:
<ul type="square">[*]He has a jack[*]He has a jack beat[*]LOL AA ist the nuts[/list]In any case it is now that I must decide if I am willing to play for stacks here.

That's not much of a decision, when all of two hands beat you. I'm willing to go broke here 100% of the time.

If villain holds trips or a boat, it's pretty much inconceivable that he'll fold to any sort of aggression, so getting stacks in is no trouble, especially with position. However, if villain holds a weaker hand, such as an overplayed pocket pair, pushing here might telegraph the fact that you hold trips. And the pot is so big now that you could actually check behind on the turn and still have a reasonable hope of getting all-in on the river, having cleverly disguised the strength of your hand. But no matter what falls, be willing to get all of your chips in.

If villain really has a PFR of 3, then this is an easy fold preflop. Your hand hasn't got enough potential to play for implied odds. Clearly villain has a very strong range here.

Villain 3bets the flop so it looks like he does indeed have a high pair. It doesn't really matter what you do, because people don't fold overpairs, especially not if it's AA. However, if you think villain might get away from it thinking you have a jack if you shove here, then just call. Let him make a large bet on the turn, and shove over that instead.

The villain in this hand is not the preflop raiser.

Yes, villian was not the pf raiser. I didn't re-raise the pf raiser because he was so short.

Try to get it in on the flop or on the turn. In this situation I think I prefer call flop, raise turn AI.
This is often JT/s+.If he has 33-&gt;cooler. Also, if behind you have three clean outs to the nuts which adds some ev.
