JJ vs. Extra loose guy calling down

Results 1 to 5 of 5

    Default JJ vs. Extra loose guy calling down

    This guy was loose and fairly aggressive (64/15/2.36) but I had seen him call people down with one pair. However I saw him slowplay some hands like flopped trips.

    What do you think about this line so far?

    Against a 64/15, how can you not 3-bet preflop? As played, I think your line is fine.

    Downswinging holla!
    Geez, why aren't you reraising here preflop? Two hands so far I've seen you just flat call OOP with AK/JJ, how often are you three betting preflop? With a villain this loose this is a mandatory reraise to isolate, that way you can start getting the majority of your chips in on these boards before overcards come. As played, I like your line. I think I bet a little larger on the river for value, something like $45.

    I was playing with you at this table, and quite honestly, you got very lucky against this player by having such nice low cards on the board.

    Most of the time the board will have an A/K/Q on it. We know that our opponent is going to call with *any* pair, even middle pair. If he's calling with any pair and there are high cards on the board, how confident do you feel about your hand now? With high cards on the board I could see you shutting down on turn/river and having him fire a huge bet at you......and then where are you at? He probably has nothing but his bet is telling you he's got you beat, so.....it'd be a tough call to make.

    Gotta pump this pot preflop. As played, though....nice board, nice hand.

    Only the hands I have posted on here lately. I raise and reraise AK/JJ almost every time. I think I have to make it EVERY time. No more mixing it up. I had a read on this guy where I knew when he was strong vs. weak and the other guy wasn't very good. Still, this is a bad play preflop as any overcard kills my hand.
