Default Re: Raising preflop w/ 99

"given a statistic cited to me before that "70% of the time an overcard falls against JJ""

This is flat-out wrong. It is a shade over 50%. The important thing is that JJ flops as an overpair or with a set roughly 60% of the time. Compare that to AK flopping a pair roughly 33% of the time. No wonder JJ's EV is so much higher than AK's at pokerroom.
