Default Re: I never fold overpairs

I'll be honest, I have a tough time folding any overpairs here. The board looks very much like someone's all-in on either QJ or 2 clubs. Why else would you raise all-in right away here? Say you had 99 -- would you throw in that quickly and risk getting no action from AK? So yeah, I think I'd have a tough time dumping any overpair, but certainly not AA. If they turn over the set -- well then that happens sometimes.

Edit: I'm talking about the first hand posted.

I agree, but I don't fold overpairs enough and I wasn't sure if this was an example. With aces its clear, with jacks maybe not so much (but I call anyway)

With Jacks I would be reluctant to call. Not so much because I'd be worried about overpairs, but because it'd be a lot less likely that he's on just a straight draw.
