Default Re: Folding JJ to a minraise preflop.

Ok, justify your horrible play. But let me open up your eyes and tell you that UTG's range is NOT QQ+, and you shouldnt mind taking a coinflip with your chip stack vs his, not to mention the numerous times you will have him dominated.

If you dont want people limping behind, then reraise to 300. If you get pushed behind, then fold and be happy with your 1100 chips remaining.

interesting. are you hoping to flop an overpair or a set and otherwise folding? just curious how you would play this flop because i would never call here. it seems like a hand such as 99 can beat you if you call here if the flop is bad for you.

Why not re-raise?

That's a terrible reason to hate JJ.

Maybe such plays are why you don't earn money with JJ. If you have a feeling he is extremely storng at least pay and try to get a set. Given raiser's stack a push is much more in order IMO. And personally I might have raised preflop first.

I like to push here. The only person you really fear going up against is John_Gait_ but he'll have to wake up with a really hand to call you here. You hand is far enough ahead of the average 22 player's range which I would put at about 88+ A7+, suitded broadways and connectors, to make pushing ++EV and fold ---EV.
