$5.50 JJ on the bubble

Neither the BB or I have been very active at all the entire game, so I don't have any read on him other than he wasn't playing junk.

Comments on all streets welcome.

You need to call here.

You beat all his likely calling hands except 77, TT and 44 (not sure I would call with that though).

call ... he would have shoved right over top of you preflop if he had one of those pocket pairs

I will say it again. I hate 99-jj. But this flop is as good as it gets for your hand(Minus J OBV) easy call

Would you have posted this if you won?

Instacall obv.

You're right - I wouldn't have posted if I won. Looking at the hand again I started second guessing my call, because I couldn't see him pushing with many hands that I beat. I know the call was the right play - he had AA for what it's worth, but the call was correct.

He would of played it the same if he had Ace Ten, i think. Good call

I like an allin preflop.

You played fine. Possibly he took some risk and did not play the hand perfectly, with AA I'm rerasing you preflop. You could have just as easily been holding TT here and guess who needs to post the hand now and ask what they did wrong? He does....
