Who Folds This?

SB is 68/22/??? after 25 hands at the table. He's won 10 big bets so he may well be catching starting hands. Plenty of pop in him for sure.

nh, don't fold top pair vs morans like him

[MartynasD]

I say u can stay in.and call him down.U have a top pair on the flop,only 2 of remainings jacks left.And river just call probably ok,but against some players it`s beter to raise,to get maximum value from them

[secretprankster]

Holy god no don't fold. You might be able to raise the river. With QJ I would. Probably JT.

Folding is never an option here. River is an interesting decision. With only 25 hands on the guy, just calling is fine, and make a note when you see turn over a massively overplayed 88 or underrepresented QQ.

You're getting 15-1 with top pair so you have to call. He could have a flushdraw, overcards, etc, but even if you're beat you're getting great odds

folding is disgusting in my opinion we need to be in here

[acehole60]

Well played. Just call down and take a note.

Nice hand OP.

Seems like everyone likes the way I played this. I'm still not sure about this hand myself. He's 3 barreling against 2 opponents on a flop that is pretty dry. Whats more, he probably is not on a draw. He would have bet a draw to begin with. I'm convinced he would have bet a lot of other hands as well. Also, given the information I have(provided in OP) he is not a moran like yourface said. He's won some bets in 25 hands so he's probably caught some hands.

If I conclude that I'm almost always behind and drawing dead to an 8 or drawing dead period, why continue after he 3bets. I have invested just 2 small bets in a hand that has the potential to cost me dearly?

Not that I lost it. I may have?
