Also, as others have noted, you will often find yourself SA/WB here if more money goes in. So you have to be ahead *WAY* more times than behind to make up for that. EDIT: Although pot odds help with that here of course.


You have a pocket pair on a paired board with heavy action. The obvious answer is...

The problem is DJ's notes should have nothing to do with this hand as OP didn't have them when making his decision. Being results oriented we can say "Oh you should call because I have this read on him" but it doesn't matter since OP didn't have those reads at the time he had to make his decision.

Well he did name his opponent, and has apparently played 4k hands with him (?), so player-specific advice seems fair enough

djj - if you have that read i give you credit for having a much better read than me and i dont mind proceeding as people have suggested. this seems to me as a case of having almost no equity or having near 50/50 equity because i see him RR JJ and show it down.


i guess my notes are something to the effect of "nit, dont pay off ever ever ever in a million years, even if you think he might be stealing." he legitimately played 11/9 for a month at 2/4. i just really dont like putting money in the pot with one pair against him to be honest.


ok im done rambling [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I agree with your reads and analysis of gregosu. He likes to be aggro with his good hands, regardless of the action. The problem I see is that if we are ahead of him, we are not superlikely to get a lot of money from him if we call, where he will probably extract the max when he has us crushed. I know the BB is a donk, but he likely has a 7(there is a decent chance he would push or fold a draw there), so you need to beat greg to come out even here. I just don't see that happening frequently enough to make it worth it.
