Default Re: ($55) Awkward spot with JJ preflop

Yes, it does help to have a read on the raiser, that's absolutely true. The more he is raising with here, the more you should push, as it makes the risk of being looked up by QQ+,AK+ after you almost negligible. Also, I believe this would be much closer to +$EV if he had standard raised, because the chips you gain when he folds, and the overlay when you are the 36.5% against the QQ+,AK+ range skew the results much further towards gaining you chips in the long term.

This is another reason why I absolutely hate donks who min raise, but anyway.
