Uh, felt a bit lost here. Comment on all streets is appreciated, since I probably botched the whole [censored] hand up [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Villian is 25/2/.8 over 87 hands. I have a note that he's bet/folded flops twice. Other than that he's seems pretty solid...

Preflop - good
Flop - I bet out pot
Turn - Fold to his raise, if he's got the flush and you are drawing him out it will be tough to get any more money from him unless you hit the king.

Playing KJs from MP in an unraised pot is fine. Couple tight-ass players are faulting this, but jeez its well within the top 4% hands.

Actually I'd be more inclined to raise rather then limp.

Bet more on the flop. Barring that, raise more on the flop.

There is a flush draw and possibly a straight draw on the flop and your jack will be pretty obvious. I think you want to take this down on the flop or at least charge those draws enough to make them unprofitable. As its played, you were giving villain about 2 1/2-1 on his call, which is enough for him to profitably call. What you really want is for an Ax or weaker jack to stick around while the flush and straight draws fold.

Since villain's stats put him into the classic loose-passive fish catagory, I think you have to give him credit for the flush here and fold the turn.

That's a pretty loose limp for full ring considering your position.

Flop: Bet pot. If you get raised, call and lead turn.

As played: Push this turn. Sometimes he'll have AJ, but 25$ NL players really overplay open trips. He could definitely have JT or QJ.

Between the chance that villain is slowplaying his weaker trips and the redraw to the boat, I don't see a problem with a push.

That said, I lead the flop hard.

I push. Worst possible scenario is he has AJ...but I'll ignore that.

It's more likely he has a weaker jack...and if he has the flush, then you still have 9 outs.
