SB is 62/0 after 30 hands and pretty bad from what I have seen. MP2 is 34/0 after 50 hands and I have no other read on him. Thoughts?

you either got rivered (most likely) or he had a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] draw.

well played, though...

I don't like $18 on turn. Bet half the pot there. Not because you are worried about Jx sucking out like they probably did here, but because you don't want to keep shoving money in the pot if someone has a crappy two pair or set. You get raised on the turn, you're likely giving up. Half the pot still prices a flush draw out. I'd bet around $12.

River call is fine. You're going to see a J here almost every time and be pissed, but you never know, some people will think that means that YOU don't have a J and now their second pair is good. Or maybe it's a small bluff to try to push you out. Check/call river is fine. So is everything else.

i would check call turn.and call a reasonable amount on river.i think im ahead,but a call from him on the turn makes it harder to believe.if he checks behind on turn ill value bet river

With two flop callers, especially a check-caller, there's a big risk someone is drawing.

Does anybody agree with SB villain's preflop call of hero's raise? In SB's spot with AA, I definitely would have reraised. Am I wrong?

MP had A A. And re-raising AA pre-flop should be everyones standard play.
