Stars $150 hand

Hero in this hand is a friend of mine.

Preflop action: Hero is in LP with red jacks. Blinds 10/20.

An MP player who has been calling a lot suddenly makes it 260 to go preflop. He has about 1700 behind, you have 1600.

What's the play? Assume it's folded to you.

Call and play really really carefully?? I honestly don't mind a fold in this spot. I can sure find better spots than this.

I don't think he would make such an obnoxious raise w/ QQ+ so I would either push pf or call and jam a flop of unders. I think that raise is usually a donk with 88-JJ.

This is usually a donk screaming "I HAVE AK ITS A DRAWING HAND DON'T CALL MY RAISE". I call and since he is going to bet most flops I reraise him every time there isn't and ace on board.

yea i call, and then raise him on any non A or K board... maybe could find a fold if a Q hit cause that raise can be AQ too.. but eh if he has AQ and hits his queen i'm probably going broke (assuming the stacks are shallow)
