Default I have JTos pot gets capped 5 way

UTG is this hand is megadonkey on a rush. Playing almost everything and raising a lot. I think hes up 1300 in around 80 hands. Button is very LP and the SB is a little laggy but I don't have much of a read on him.

Maniac or not, I don't understand coldcalling with JTo.

Raise the turn. There is a lot of money in this pot and it's worth a risk to improve your chances of winning it.

I'm not reading any further than PREFLOP for this hand.

Absolutely horrible preflop call.

First of all, super-donk or not, J-high is not a great hand to take into battle here. It has no showdown value unimproved.

Secondly, despite UTG being a donk, MP likes his hand enough to cold-call. Your JTo hand has even less equity now.


Note: with JTs, a cold-call wouldn't be bad here, imo, as long as you can count on one or two more coming along for the ride behind you. Cuz it plays well multi-way.

On another note, if I was heads-up against this donk ... I'd much rather have a hand like K9o than JTo.

Fold preflop. Bet the flop. Raise the turn.

Everything else looks pretty standard.
