If you just call that flop reraise which I'd probably do some of the time, then the Jack is a plenty decent card to be check raising the turn with. (and you should probably be raising most turns)

Yeah if your not gonna 3-bet the flop then checkraise the turn and that's right, the J is a plenty safe card to do this with. If he 3-bets you can find a fold here, but you are ahead alot of the time IMO.

His aggression factor is 0.4. A cap on the flop is telling you there's something better than top pair.

Folding as part of a play versus an ubber fish is flat out horrid. Especially with a solid pair relative to the board.

Well, this uber fish has an aggression factor of 0.4. When a mega calling station wakes up and raises, you have to start to worry. That's why I advocate the three bet. If it gets capped, that's a reason to fold the turn unimproved.

For someone who plays 85% of their hands, an aggression factor of .4 isn't horribly low. He could easily be raising top pair on the flop.

I play the same way as it was posted.

You need to be more aggressive than OP. We need to try and fold overcards in the hands of CO.

Yes. 3-bet puts 2 cold to CO.

I also agree with posters who suggest call versus cap from fish is valuable information.
