Ok - reposting with play-along dialogue and results. Thanks for the comments.
Sounds like I was generally just screwed here.
Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)
MP3 ($15.95)
CO ($10.15)
Hero ($23.55)
SB ($31.85)
BB ($39.93)
UTG ($9.65)
UTG+1 ($23.30)
UTG+2 ($34.20)
MP1 ($33.45)
MP2 ($24.10)
Preflop: Hero is Button with J , K . SB posts a blind of $0.10.
4 folds, MP2 calls $0.25, MP3 calls $0.25, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.25, SB (poster) completes, BB checks.
[I don't generally raise KJs after limpers - I just limp along looking for the goods and hope to get paid. Perhaps this is too weak. Sure woulda saved my ass this time if I had raised - woulda just picked up a small pot but better than the results.]
Flop: ($1.25) J , J , 7 (5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, MP2 checks, MP3 bets $0.5, Hero raises to $1.5, SB calls $1.50, BB folds, MP2 folds, MP3 folds.
[I don't want to F around slowplaying here - doofus with ace high, 7x, 89, 99-AA won't believe me and will chase anyway. I reraise, but not too hard. Now the SB limper smooth calls.
That sets of some minor alarms. Instinct alone gives me a range of hands for him of
Most likely: Jx (JT/QJ/KJ/AJ/J8/J9 mostly), 77
Less likely: AA/KK/QQ/Ax
There is nothing to chase here so he's probably not chasing, either he doesn't believe me and has an overpair, or he has a weaker jack, maybe better etc.]
Turn: ($4.75) 5 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $3, SB raises to $8, Hero calls $5.
[My plan here was to go ahead and bet out - either he folds crap, even a donk-limped AA/KK/QQ 7x, or he calls with 77 or Jx.
I figured he'd reraise AJ, maybe 77 here...so I would dump to the reraise and follow my instincts.
Dumbass me didn't listen to the frickin alarms.]
River: ($20.75) 4 (2 players)
SB bets $8, Hero calls $8.
Value bets on the end. I have no fear of the flush here. I fear mostly 77/AJ. Another dumbass river call. Grrrr!!!
I would probably mostly have just pushed the turn...but something was not sitting right - just gut feel...knew I was beat and then called turn and river anyway. Gotta listen to those instincts more I guess.
Final Pot: $36.75
Results below:
SB has 7s Jc (full house, jacks full of sevens).
Hero has Jh Kh (three of a kind, jacks).
Outcome: SB wins $36.75.
Honestly, I didn't expect to see J7o - I know he's got odds to complete the SB with that hand preflop, but the chances that it provides are so weak, I sure as heck never complete my SB with it, even if the whole table limps. The # of times I'm gonna flop a monster vs. waste half a blind are just too few to make it count for me. But it sure counted for this guy in a big way.
