[euphoricism]

Unknown villains... one shorty, one fullstacked. I guess I should have just shoved over MP2, the shorty?

Yes. Galapagos posted some insightful stuff about this type of thing in one of my threads a while back, but I'm not about to look for it.

Basically, if you think you have the aggressive guy beat then you likely have the passive guy beat as well, and you should capitalize on that by their tendencenies to play bad in RR pots.

Are you euphoricxxx or something on Stars?

It's a mighty good thing you don't play Stars. I don't like to share.

I don't like the cold call preflop..With MP1 just calling the raise I'm not putting him on a monster and our JJ is def ahead of our range. By calling 40BB are we going to fold to a flop push if overcards fall? I just push here, isolating the shortstack and MP1 has already show a lot of intrest in sticking around in this pot with 2 calls.

as played we have to call..we got a near perfect flop for our hand..(besides set obv). I would put MP1 on 9 9 here.

i dont like to shove over pf w/ JJ in RRed pots...but i aint folding that flop, either. if overs hit, i may fold, but not here.

Woah, I didn't notice that was 50nl. For some reason I thought you were playing 100nl so I thought those were short/medium stacks. My advice was meant for a situation like this
