JJ, Too Aggressive?
This was my 2nd orbit so I didn't have real good reads. Villian had only played a few hands with nothing note worthy in his play. He certainly wasn't a LAG and seemed to be thinking a player but I hadn't reached any conclusions. He hadn't played a lot of hands so he wasn't the any 2 will do type.
Is this overly aggressive? Should I have just gone into call down mode (a fold was not an option for me here without a strong read which I don't have here). I have a real hard time figuring out what to do here. It feels like a way ahead/way behind situation so maybe calling down is the best line. He could of had a hand like TT, 88, AQ, or AJ and been making a play. I had a hard time giving him credit for AA, KK, QQ or AK since he didn't 3 bet (JJ was possible in which case any play is 0 EV). He could also have had 99 or A3s which I'm way behind to. It seemed like there were more possible hands I beat than beat me so I felt a reraise was the best play. What are people's standard line here? All comments and criticisms welcome. Thanks.

Re: JJ, Too Aggressive?
Looks good to me vs. an unknown but suspected decent player. If the read is correct, he's not going to be coldcalling you preflop with a 3 in his hand (unless he's got two of them and even that's iffy) and he's probably 3-betting with AA-QQ, so your only real worries are 44 and 99. I think you're good here the vast majority of the time, especially when he just calls your turn 3-bet.
As for my standard play here, I vary it between 3-betting the turn and calling down. On this board and this limit, I'd usually 3-bet the turn, too. |

Re: JJ, Too Aggressive?
Looks reasonable. MP could have raised the turn with a 9.
