Second Hand Low?
A couple of general thoughts:
1. I'm not crazy about raising with the Jacks out of position for all the reasons mentioned. I know the hazards of this as I routinely make this mistake.
2. With no immediate read on the table I am instantly alert when there are limpers from EP and MP, making your raise out of the SB that much more egregious.
3. Maybe I'm over thinking this, but could this be an example of what Cloutier calls playing second hand low? Meaning limping after limpers in hopes that someon in back will raise the pot driving the limpers back into you and you being able to put in a pretty big raise at that time?
I dunno. I think you played it exactly as I would have, which means you played it horribly [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Better luck next time.
