Re: JJ...this hand made me sick (whining post)
I am jumping in pretty late, but you want to get the most $$ out of your JJ. You do that by getting the money in preflop when the table is most likely to play with you. Then when you flop a hand they are more likely to stay with you because the pot is big. Driving people out is wrong thinking. You can't and rarely want to protect your hand in most cases at limit.
JJ will only drag a pot a few percentage points over break even so if you slow play JJ you may as well throw it away preflop. You need to raise to get the most value out of JJ when you do drag a pot with JJ...such as this hand.
