Comments on PF and flop action are welcome but I'm most curious about how you handle the 2nd flop decision...

I have 690 behind...

No reads as it's early and I don't recognize either villain...

I'm going broke here - push. (PF is fine IMO)

Re: Ugly Postflop Situation w/ JJ ($109)
 

this is a bit tough, because there's no flush draw. I think its correct to fold, but I am not a high limit player.

My thinking is based on Gautengs play. He calls after two callers, then checks the flop. After a bet and a raise, he flat calls. This screams better than TPTK to me, which is all you are beating. (It can't be a bluff, because there isn't any room for him to push the turn and expect any FE anyways.) Fold.

Re: Ugly Postflop Situation w/ JJ ($109)
 

I raise to t80, but whatev. The hand is played fine. I push now. 88 or A9 loves to minraise here, thinking you have overcards. I'm not really sure why. Caller could have TT, 88, 77, A9.

Remember that they are is twice as likely to have TT, 88, or 77 on this board than a set (ignoring what he would/wouldn't raise/call with).

Too much money. Too good a hand. But I'm not thrilled.

I definitely push this most of the time... but I just couldn't see how I had both hands beat here... if SB doesn't cold call the minraise I push for sure...

Re: Ugly Postflop Situation w/ JJ ($109)
 

Push, I'm afraid, even though you probably lost to a set, otherwise you'd not have posted it..

Re: Ugly Postflop Situation w/ JJ ($109)
 

push, lose to some weird hand (or a slow played big pair), and reload.

Re: Ugly Postflop Situation w/ JJ ($109)
 

I just hate the overcall from the blind. I feel sick but can't see folding considering the pot and your stack sizes. One encouraging aspect is that you don't recognize either villain which to me makes it more likely that they're donks.

So push.

I've never seen either of those players at the $109s, but my sample size is miniscule, so meh. I may have at the $55s. Not sure, as my PT database is on the home pc.
