25NL -- KK meets a flop checkraise

[Bort99]

No read on villain. Just sat down, and I use a Mac, which means no HUD goodness for me.

So, the check-raise probably means trouble, but really we're only scared of JJ and 77 (well, AA too). Do any other hands do this, though? (Maybe AcJc?)

If we call, what's the plan if the turn blanks and villain bets?

My instinct is to shove, which I've been learning is bad right here.

At 25NL, you are seeing 10J do this to you against the typical villain. Shove it.

[GooseHinson]

Doesn't villain fold a J to a shove? I like a call and shove any turn (except an ace). That way at least we get another bet (likely) from a hand we crush and we still lose to hands that beat us.

At 25nl most players are stacking off with top pair.

Shove all day.
