Is this standard against an unknown?

Is there an argument for overlimping PF?

I can't imagine folding there without reads - there aren't too many better flops to ask for with JJ - but I also don't think I've played a single hand of online FR cash before

why the move to FR J?

you have another recently posted JJ hand against an unknown who min 3bets pf and leads for 3/4th pot on a more coordinated board (8-6 two tone) to which you checkraise

how is this situation scarier

This is 4way and effective stacks are much larger

Would he be betting the pot with a made hand, like a set, wanting to push out the draw?

I think hand analysis would work better if your thought process was included either in general or one each street. Unless it's a test...

Id always raise pre and always fold flop to unknown.

I think I probably fold cos of the 2 people to act behind us. Is it bad to call the flop? Just seems a little weak to fold.

I have to recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

I missed the effective stacks when i skimmed this at work

if u call flop you may get pushed on from one of the others to act and fold flop $24 poorer.
Then if you dont get raised you dont want to see a 5, Q, K, A or spade and may be losing anyway.

I fold.

Lol this isn't a test, it's a genuine question because I wasn't sure what the best thing to do was. I'm glad I went for the same as wota.


Out of interest, what if he bets $16? I guess what I'm asking is what size do we call, and do we ever raise when he bets?
