Complete unknown, saw villian fold a few hands thats it. My apologies if this is common, too basic or just a terrible mistake. I've lost all confidence and I lost about a grand yesterday. Been running (probably playing) real bad since I've returned from a trip and moved up to play 3/6
Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (9 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with J/images/graemlins/spade.gif, J/images/graemlins/heart.gif.

Flop: (7.33 SB) 9/images/graemlins/heart.gif, A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, K/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Villian thinks for long time
<font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 5.16 BB

Fold seems fine to me.

You're chopping with the other JJ, beating TT, and losing to every other 3-betting hand if he's reasonable preflop.

Not worth a calldown.

Is the bet even worth it as a sort of bluff?

Against a weak player, i'd fire one out there. Maybe he has TT/JJ/QQ and will fold. It's happened before, I think it might happen 1/7 times.

Really depends on read.

Would you think that an unknown would be weak enough? Of course assuming that unknown is "typical Party 3/6 player."

I have no idea, I don't play 3/6, but i'd lay it down to a typical 2/4 player.

I was talking about the initial flop bet. Would you try it against an unknow 2/4 player?

Prolly beat if he is three betting and that flop comes.. i think a fold is in order and not worth seeing his cards.

Yes, though i'm willing to admit it may be slightly -EV.
