Default Re: Blind Defense w/J6o comments

`blind post`

I'm doing this because I know nothing about blind defense, so everything I say here might be completely wrong.

First off, I think J6o is a bit of a weak hand to be defending your blind with from the SB. I'd maybe defend w/ J8+, Q8+, and K9+, but J6 is iffy at best.

The flop is fine I think, but I'd be really worried about the BB coming along for the ride... What can he possibly have besides an open ended straight draw? (Of course, since you gave us no reads it's hard to say).

Turn is fine too.

Now the river... You bet, and the BB, who has been a perfect calling station up to now, RAISES. Do you think he decided to defend with 54 and hit? It's a possibility...

And on top of that, the Button reawakens and three bets... What could he have? Sincerely, I have no clue

At any rate, the pot is now huge. You are getting 18:2 when the betting gets to you, with the possibility of a cap behind you. So, either you get 19:2 or 22:3. Do you think you're good that often. I think I'd call, but I'm not sure.
