something to ponder
 

how often do you think about other pocket pairs? for example, i just lost a big pot when nothing higher than a ten fell. my JJ < other guys KK < other guys AA.

It doesn't seem like the first time this has happened to me. I couldn't drop my hand despite all the betting, because as the chances of draws and overcards went away on the board i figured my PP might stand up. But no, not even close. End rant. Maybe the PF cap was an indication of this. but c'mon, that just doesn't seem realistic.

When it gets capped preflop and you hold JJ, you should probably think about folding if it's ever 2 to you on the turn, assuming the flurry of betting and depending on reads. You have to start thinking about AA-QQ then.

What did you think they were 3-betting or 4-betting with? Group 1 seems pretty obvious to me.

Well I cap with AKs, AKo, AQs, KQs but thats about it. I kind of hopped it was the table going on tilt... but it was just me. I have trouble throwing away a non improving pocket pair ESPECAILLY on a board that is so boring. but the reverse is that all these bets on a boring board must have some meaning.

you should only be capping AA-QQ and AKs and that's in a loose game from lp
