That line is obvious to Barry Greenstein, but not to your average 20/40 player. Speaking of a set of jacks, I was playing 20/40 at Commerce last night and raised PF with JJ only to have the fish to my right weak lead into me on a flop of J75.

I smooth called and raised a 3 turn (part of the reason I did this was because we weren't heads up and I wanted overcalls from 3 other players in the hand; hoping they'd catch up to a hand only slightly worse than top set). He called the turn raise and check-called a 3 river.

When he called he said "I don't believe you," and after that I said, "full house." He goes, "Really?!!" and seemed shocked at my JJ. He turned to his friend who was sweating him and insulting him for giving me too much action. He told his friend that when I just called on the flop he assumed his hand was good, and that I was just making a move on the turn with AK.

So I think the line works good against the majority of mid-limit players. Against Barry, probably not.
