** Dealing Flop **

What do you guys think?

Well I'm going to start off by giving the typical "It depends on the player who reraised you". I don't know if you've been loose, stealing a lot of blinds, tight, or what. I can't be sure.


Anyways, raising to 350 then getting all the money in pf is a fine play. 5 handed is it very hard to find a reason to fold JJ to one opponent when then bubble is not about to burst. It's not like folding to a reraise will seal you ITM. Getting all the money in is correct.


The only way to lay down a hand like JJ PF in this situation is if you have two players all in in front of you (or emminently all in), or a player is about to be blinded out 4th.

Seems okay. Though I might just flat out push JJ allin preflop (yes I see you have > 10 bb's, but I think it's still the best play).

[Voltron87]

His raise of 450 more screams trouble to me however.

Though in online (faceless) play in this situation it is hard to fold JJ against one opponent).

[/ QUOTE ]You were right on the money there. I had no particular reads on him so I can only presume he's playing rational poker. His raise pretty much forced to go all in or fold. I guess checking the flop for high cards would have been another option too.)

You have position and still a chunk of chips after his reraise. I'd like to call, see the flop, check out his move then.

Graham's advice is real good. Personally in this situation I just push PF.
