    Default JJ with a K high flop

    No stats on this guy. He has been at the table a while though, PT gets bogged up on Ongame after you've been playing for a few hours and stats on screen are either not there or pretty much useless. So all I know is about a half hour ago this guy pulled the same move on me and I gave him a hard time about it in the chat window saying that makes folding easy because it's always so obvious you have aces. I know I know don't give donks lessons but I really can't stand that line. He isn't a nut-camping nit, he does raise preflop. I haven't been too active at this table, but it's not like I've just been folding every hand or anything, probably running about 18/8 or so.

    Basically, I put him on a pretty good PP here preflop going for the steal. Not too sure what to make of his post flop play. I definately liked the vibe I got from his turn bet though.

    It wasn't a move, I honestly felt I had the best hand here. His turn bet just re-affirmed it. I'm more curious as to if it looks like I was really off on this read?

    ehhh i really dont see a hand your beating making these bets, youd have to put him on 1010, or 22-88, or limp raising and contining with complete air

    How often do you let him pull this play before you start fighting back? And what would your range for that be?

    yea you have to fold the flop and preflop is debateable

    Your reads conflict for me so idk. You say he is 18/8, but also has squeezed like this before. It's hard to tell which it is, but im willing to bet it was coincidence and his actually range here is JJ+ and AK.

    ISF occasionally pretends to be a nit on the forums but in my experience with him he doesnt fold ever
