I am having absolute hell with these situations, I don't see many reasons to play the hand pf or on the flop.

I would fold this on the flop. But if you feel compelled to play this board with your J9, I think the better move would be to make a decent bet on the flop and see what ur opp does. If called, u can muck that easily. Giving him the betting impetus on the flop gets u no information.

once that idiot tries a weak steal attempt my chips are on the middle. U need to be ahead of him like 75% of the time to make the push profitable which I think its very realistic. Also I would raise preflop to 150...pushing most flops if he calls , folding if re-raised but i suppose this isnt the topic.

If you are folding this flop why are you calling PF. I raise flop. If called push turn.

This is a clear allin preflop in basically any game.

care to explain mathematicly why?

I think this is a clear preflop push also. But considering the completion, I dont think I can commit to this hand with mid pair. If I call the completion, Im looking for the jack. with mid pair...its lookin like a fold

I can wave my hands.

J9o has a slight edge vs. a random hand. Opponent has a random hand. Opponent will fold many of the hands that are favored over J9o. Hero's stack could use those 75 chips.

Sry but ure explination doesnt satisfy me, if villain calls with top 25% hero is in trouble [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
