Default Re: I fold JJ pf

bozlax, Party $.5/1 is filled with horrible players but they are INCREDIBLY PASSIVE horrible players that raise 5% of their hands.

I don't see why everyone thinks the impled odds are enormous either. You're getting 10.5:4 immediate, which probably averages out to around 13:4 once the preflop action ends. You need to make up ~ (40-13) = 27 SBs = 13.5BBs postflop just to break even, which is not that easy to do.

For people saying "it's easy to play, just flop a set or fold" -- this is not true for the majority of you and you know it. Oftentimes you are paying bets here so you can lose money postflop.
