Default Re: JJ Hand

What do people think of calling the turn and then raising the river?

Hobbs makes a good point: many hands have only a few outs against this, and raising the turn may only encourage a correct fold when an opponent with a hand like TT would keep betting down. I also REALLY don't want to be put in a position to fold the best hand, and raising the river tends to discourage villains from three-betting with weak hands (largely because they're less worried we're making a move) and so we're in less of a position to get forced to fold.

Just a thought. I don't know if I like this better than raising the turn or just calling down. My sense is that on the third BB that goes in we are only marginally ahead in equity, and so the three different paths (calling down, raising the turn, and raising the river) should have pretty similar EVs.
