Bubbled again(with two jacks), question about play

[JasonP530]

I was really thinking of folding this one, given some posts I had read recently. I just couldnt fold two Jacks when I thought I had good folding equity. I found I have been bubbling a lot more lately, so maybe this is someplace to improve. Please let me know what you think I should have done.

er, yeah. i'm going to approach this one as if it weren't a bad beat post. i'm assuming that your opponent was on a reasonable, but widening range of raising hands.

in reality, you have the thinking entirely down, so don't change a thing. you had plenty of folding equity, and a great hand. getting called by KJ here is totally fine. when you get called here and the guy loses, you don't post about it, so don't post about it from now on when you lose the hand hte 35% of the time or whatever.

i'm not going to make a statement like "you want him to call" or anything like that because i really don't want to hear from the icm people on this one, since well, the guy shouldn't be calling.

jj is an easy push here, results are irrelevant.

Getting all-in with a villain drawing that thin is a good thing. Villain is a durn fool idjit.

eyo, and don't forget about the folding equity!

[tech]

I'm certainly no expert, but this seems like an incredibly easy push to me. You were a huge favorite and he caught something. It happens.

[JasonP530]

thanks cit. It wasnt meant as a bad beat post at all. Obviously if I win, I dont post it...I had just seen a lot of people laying down AQ and AJ close to the money, and wondered if that applied here. I thought he made a horrible call(esp given his big stack), but oh well. Thanks for the help

Look forward to playing this fish again /images/graemlins/smile.gif

You only have 5.5 big blinds left. You can't wait any longer. This is an easy push. Villain made a bad call and got lucky.

Umm.... last time i checked 2200/200=11x BB... What would u guys say if villain turned over AA?

I have a real question, what if this were 7 handed and u and villain had about 1600 each...

Sorry, I took the above line to mean that BB was 400.
