    you know that if he has any hand with a jack, he probably plays it the exact same and you give him the money, right?

    My read was a pair...when the second Jack fell, I was pretty confident it wasn't Jacks. I was thinking QQ actually.

    You are asking for trouble if you raise only 3x preflop after all those limpers.

    BTW how is 100nl treating you? Aren't these your first hands?

    Hear ya on the p/f. Mostly I'm raising $4, $5 when it's a family affair. I'm trying to keep it fairly consistent though so as I don't give away my monsters.

    I'm bouncing between 50-100NL. I've been playing these limits for the past number of weeks and I'm basically break-even, but I don't have enough hands in to make any judgements yet. Holding my own, getting killed occasionally by some laggier players, but mostly finding the game is fairly soft. Having a lot of fun beating up on shorties but I've learned to be wary of unknown full buys

    Your posts have been a lot of help Renton, just so's ya know.

    Next reload I'm there. Going back to Full Tilt to clear their reload first. And the passive tighties make it a very good place for someone who's trying to lagg up their game a bit.
