Default Flop top set $3/$5 NL Live, different line maybe?

9 handed game $300 max buy in. Effective stacks are $300. All fold to me OTB with JJ. I raise to $20, SB calls, BB folds.

Villain is unknown, just sat down 3 hands ago but doubled up when he cold called $25 preflop with 79o in CO and flopped 2 pair vs. QQ. Seems like a donkey.

Flop ($45) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Villain leads for $20, I just call.

Turn ($85) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Villain checks, I bet $40. He calls.

River ($165) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Villain checks, I pause for awhile thinking he really can't have anything here and bet $95, he just calls.

Final Pot ($355)

Comments/suggestions on different line or any streets appreciated [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

If you bet more on the turn you can bet more on the river. I don't think you have to raise the flop, depends on how good you are at acting though.

this hand reminds me why i would be rich if they could only deal faster and people didn't hollywood for five minutes before finally folding ace high.

OP, this is a 60bb game and you failed to get all in with top set. this is pretty much a crime.

i think it might be better to raise flop (to $70 maybe?) on this specific board (very draw heavy, lots of action killing cards). you are also against someone who has just doubled up and is probably feeling lucky/likes to gamble.

Then the rest of the hand plays much simpler as the pot is so much bigger.
