JJ utg. reraised.

Results 1 to 5 of 5
  1. #1

    Default JJ utg. reraised.

    The game is 10 handed $25NL. I have a stack of about $33. The other 2 players in this hand both have stacks of about $28. I don't have any info on these 2 players at all.

    There was one limper in the pot already (because he just joined the table).
    I'm dealt JJ and raise to $1.25 utg. A player in midposition calls. It gets folded to the BB who raises to $4.25. I call. The player in midposition now goes allin for a total of $28. The BB calls and I fold.

    What do you think about the hand? Should I have played it differently? Maybe folded to the inital reraise by the BB? Or did I play OK?
    I don't think I should make the call of the allin bet. I must be up against at least one overpair.

    The results are posted in white below:
    the big blind had KK and the player in middle position had QQ

    Without any reads on the player who makes the reraise, I think at least seeing a flop is fine. If you choose to play more conservative than that, you can make the fold and that is fine too. I might even make that fold preflop .

    However, calling in the all in is just plain bad unless your read says that both players are incredibly drunk pissing off chips every hand. In that case, go for it buddy!

    And negative, I am not a jew.

    What kind of criticism are you expecting out of this hand?
