Default Re: Should this play be made?

I don't think that push is right, but it's not the worst. You're trying to catch up on most of his reasonable raising hands (AA/AK/KK/QQ/AQ) and you're only ahead against JJ/TT. JJ/TT are drawing to 2 outs (or 1, the other being a club, which is great for you if it hits), so giving it a free card isn't scary at all. If he has one of the better hands, he's almost sure to bet on the turn anyway if a club hits so you can CR him. The trick is if a Q or A comes, you're almost a tossup on whether or not it put you ahead or improved both of you and left you still behind. If he underbets again on the turn and you don't improve on the river, then you can probably safely lay it down to a river bet. It would take great stones to fire a "value bet" with JJ/TT on the river after getting called twice and having the option to check behind.
