Any other ideas? Should I have checked the turn or bet???

Cool hand. Yeah this is a tough one. I think this is a good example of how the extra 200 chips at the $55s+ can really help.

So the only way you're winning this hand is betting the turn, if you check I think you're automatically out. However that play is too risky and I think you're better off with the check/fold.

Get em next time slugger.

Check/fold the turn IMHO. Into two opponents, it's bad to lead out again.

Too bad he hit a 6 outer or a set. Oh well, turns happen.

:-( to raising JJ early position level 1.

I really really don't like doing that.

You will get too many callers, you will be out of position and 50 % of the time the flop will come overcards with no jack.

I could be wrong with my opinions here - but this is the eternal debate - just my two cents.

I'm waiting for round 57 of this debate to begin....

I'll jump in right away, I don't see anything wrong with raising.

[Sponger15SB]

Alright so nobody here likes a check-raise all in?

[benza13]

I like the check raise if you are deeper, but it doesn't seem like you have enough chips to push him off of anything in this situation.

I don't see anything wrong with raising either. At an insnanely LP (loose-passive) table, I think limping is fine.

Nah...
If the action had gone check/check/bet, then you can get all aggro and C/R all-in. But in this case MP2 will have a hand most of the time as he's not closing the action.
