Re: 20-40 Pocket Jacks hand
See, I just don't get that line of thinking ... wanting to "win the pot right there" which is all fine and good, but then you get 3 bet ... so know you must consider you are beat.
you are probably just drawing ... perhaps dead to boot ... so let's balance drawing dead and an overagressive play as negating factors and you are getting ~14-1 on a ~22-1 call ... looks like bad poker to me.
The river bet furthers the point and should drive the knife in further. As elysium said, "He expects you to call. You are going to lose."
You had a plan, it didn't work ... so shut down ... and btw, shutting down doesn't mean calling ... if it does, then hell, I better get in your game.
where was this 20 game ... in the city?
