Ooh, this is fun. You can make a case for any of the three.

Is MP3 a donkey? If he is I can see a call or a raise. If not, I probably fold.

[NYCNative]

That bet reeks to me of continuation bet of AQ flop miss or a smaller PP than you have (9s, possibly). In a cash game or later on, I would raise here. Early in a SNG I let villain take it. I doubt I would call unless I thought I could eventually get vilain to fold to a bet/raise, which does happen sometimes. Lots of people will stab once but not twice.

[Scuba Chuck]

Pretty early in the game, but I folded because I had one left to act behind me. Had MP3 not been in the game, I would have tried a raise here. BTW, MP3 did fold.

Sucba,

I think you're like 5 threads over your JJ thread limit...why not just pm Adanthar for his manual on how to not suck with JJ?

You're becoming Jackpot Jay with all of your JJ hands [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img].

Yugo, I need to learn more moves than your "fold preflops." Also after yesterdays thread, I thought I would post some more of my JJ hands again. For me, it's my toughest hand.

who takes it as a compliment "Jackpot Jay"

[bluefeet]

Damn....it would have to flop that. Only one guy behind you too. If i could give you about 400 more chips, this looks like a great time to do some defining w/ a T225ish raise.

1/3 pot bet could very easily be a trap from UTG. Could it really be a desperate plee... "pa-leeeeeease guys just fold, i ain't got no damn chips left"-weakass bet??

If it was just you and him, I might pop it and pray. With another PFr caller behind you, I resort to my original "fold to an over".

[Newt_Buggs]

I'de actually call here. There's almost no way that I'm folding to a weak t95 bet, and I don't want to trap myself against either of them. The guy behind will have a tough time doing anything other than folding without a K and a flush draw, and if UTG is betting this weak with (now) junk hes unlikely to decide to bet stronger on the turn with his weak hand.

I'm interested in your preflop action here. Do you fold, call, or raise this? If you intend to play this, I would be interested in your postflop strategy. ($33 buyin)

This is one of those times I fold JJ. Call me crazy. Funny how I got into a big argument about how stupid it was to fold or limp regularly with JJ UTG, but now I'm one of the only ones that seems to want to fold.
