Re: $11: JJ early game, interesting hand
Why such a massive raise PF? It's not like there's much out there worth taking down at that point, so one of three things is going to happen:
1) You win a very small pot pre-flop and basically waste your jacks. Yippee. 2) You get called and the flop comes with an overcard(s) and you are faced with tough flop decisions in a big pot. 3) You get called and your jacks are an overpair to the flop. You likely have the best hand, unless villian flopped a set or slowplayed an overpair. Scenarios 1 and 2 are more likely to happen than scenario 3, and neither 1 nor 2 are particularly great. SO, I either limp PF or I raise smaller, keep the pot manageable. I really hate the huge PF raise here. |
