Default Re: Bad Move?

You should NEVER re-raise with JJ pre-flop (unless shortstacked). You want to see a flop and make sure no overs come. If they do, good for you, you're done. Otherwise you still have to play very cautiously. Many players over value small pocket pairs (Jacks included). They just don't hold up that well.

The only time i'm comfortable moving in with jacks is when I flop a set. Maybe a little comfortable if on the river and there's still no overs and betting has been small.
