weird hand
400 max, 4-handed, Stars. Second orbit, but I've been playing very aggressive, taking down probably 5 of the last 8 pots. Stack sizes:
Button/Hero: 500 SB: 120 BB: 550 UTG: 700 UTG limps, I raise to 20 with T7s. Everyone calls. Flop (80): Jd 7d 7 check, check, bet of 60, I ??? Bettor seems sort of loose-passive, but then again, only 2 orbits. What's your move here? |

Re: weird hand
This bet screams of Jacks up.
I would just call, you have a great chance to stack him if a non-diamond falls on the turn. Also you can get a call from the blinds... |

Re: weird hand
See, this is exactly what I was thinking. There's a good chance SB pushes with 88-99, any overpair, any J, any overcards w/flush draw. And coincidentally, such a push is just enough for me to able to re-raise on top if necessary.

Re: weird hand
If you've taken down so many pots and have been agressive, I'd say this is a good time to change gears and tighten up. I wouldn't raise with this hand PF. Some of these guys are probably waiting to trap you or come over the top, and this hand can't take much heat. It would be different if you were opening the betting.
Anyway, I agree with making it $200. |

[/ QUOTE ] Disagree. 4-handed, if you've been successfully taking down most pots, this bet works fine. Also, I like a mere call here to see how villain behaves on the turn. A bet of 200 gives him too much information. You'd be better off calling, then he has no idea where he's at and it makes it tough for him to play correctly. |

Re: weird hand
Raise pot. If he's on the J, he folds. Overpair folds. 7 and kicker calls or pushes.
