Re: Folding JJ to a minraise preflop.
I don't mind folding, if your read tells you he is trapping with a big hand.
I can see folding, calling and reraising as valid alternatives. Can't remember ever having a good enough read to fold in a case like this thoguh. Most of the time I like a reraise to 250-300 here. |

I would call [/ QUOTE ] I would hate calling here only to get raised behind... In the immortal words of TJ Cloutier "Reraise or fold." I think I am scared to play JJ now that I have looked over my hand performance. It's 10th from the bottom. Ugh. WTF. |

Folding is inexcusable.

Folding is inexcusable. [/ QUOTE ] Not really. In a 22 you can count on at least one person calling behind, and the BB calling too. If you assume UTG has a real hand- one worthy of raising UTG... what range would you put him on? AA, KK, AKs, QQ...? Not that it matters, but in this hand, the player next to act after I folded pushed, and was called by UTG. |
