    Default Was this just a cooler?

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em Tournament, 250/500 Blinds 50 Ante (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    UTG+1 (t8104)
    MP1 (t25282)
    MP2 (t14769)
    Hero (MP3) (t46737)
    CO (t17630)
    Button (t10670)
    SB (t16465)
    BB (t16516)
    UTG (t8391)

    Hero's M: 38.95

    Preflop: Hero is MP3 with J, J
    2 folds, MP1 calls t500, 1 fold, Hero bets t2000, 4 folds, MP1 calls t1500

    Flop: (t5200) 4, 7, 8 (2 players)
    MP1 checks, Hero bets t3500, MP1 raises to t7000, Hero raises to t44687 (All-In), MP1 calls t16232 (All-In)

    Turn: (t51664) 8 (2 players, 2 all-in)

    River: (t51664) A (2 players, 2 all-in)

    Total pot: t51664

    Results:
    MP1 had K, K (two pair, Kings and eights).
    Hero had J, J (two pair, Jacks and eights).
    Outcome: MP1 won t51664

    He had been playing pretty standard so far, never in a million years expected him to limp with a strong hand.

    I mean you could have just called the reraise but yea I think it's a cooler. If he pushes any street but the river you almost have to call from the way he's played. I don't fold this hand.

    mp1 limps then calls ur raise pre-flop. then re-raises u on the flop. how much strength do you wish to represent before u realise ur beat?

    the only thing that maybe could have got you away was the ck/ raise on the flop..i guess when u think of the limp flat pre then the check raise post it does represent alot of strength. tough to get away though, i cant say for sure if i lay this down but i dont think i would consider it a cooler

    Yes, legologic, the limp-call pre-flop is often the sign of an overpair...

    I think you played it perfectly. In my experience you have the best hand the vast majority of the time in this situation.
