Bet the turn. If he still doesn't go away, check the river.

sound like the better play. u can still getaway i suppose if u bet turn, checks river and he pushes? am i right?

RR?

Why are we not betting like 20-22 on this flop?

[holyfield5]

because i bet less in RR pots

I think it's hard to let go of an overpair here if I'm hero.

But I have some other thoughts. many draws out makes a semi bluff possible as well, and if he likes to pick up pots this could be agood spot with a drawing hand.

however, if he is a bit laggish, then he can have a wide range of hands such as 56 or 34, any pocket pair for a set or JJ or other things.

If he is capable of thinking, then this is a strong play I think, because of Hero's quite large reraise preflop, he expects HEro to have a good hand that he cannot release. He's not trying to make us fold, he wants us to call. Which makes me think he has a strong hand like 2 pair or better.

I think we're beat but still it may be hard to let go of this hand.

depending on how smart he is, since the J on turn didnt finish any hand, then he might be trying to make you think that he is betting a draw to induce a call from your likely overpair... but thats if he is smart. he might be unsmart, and doing this with AJ or something as well..

summary: I think you are beat, assuming he is smart, but I don't know if I can fold this hand anyway.
