Default Re: Pushing too hard with JJ?

[ QUOTE ]

Regardless of whether MP1 has AA, KK, QQ here, overall, in the long run at these stakes, the play of reraising with with JJ then pushing on the flop with this big of a pot size is definitely +EV .

I'm not sure about that one. especially at that level.People tend to get tunnel vision when they get the aces. they get in "call anything/raise anything at all times" with the pocket rockets. Its not the fact of going all in with the Jacks on the flop when there is 18$ in the pot and you have 23$ left that is bothering me, its more the +EV thing. I use to play that way and push with the Jacks but like I said before, People with Aces, Kings and even AK would end up calling me becuase of that tunnel vision and sometimes draw out on me. According to my stats on PT I did have a +EV but it was a very small one. Not enough to justify pushing in my stack, when with most tables at that level people don't really take into account pot odds and a 3-5$ bet into that 18$ pot would of been the same as pushing with 23$.
tell me what you think
later
