Default $22: Interesting hand, do you call?

To set it up a little the last 2 times he was in the BB I had good hands, AK and AQ... both times he called my raise, first time i miss flop 2nd time i hit Q, but here is a JQ which is the type of hands he has been showing.

Both times he goes all in, the second time i grunted and groaned but folded both times.

So the next time this is what happens

The second time you had TPTK and folded? Is that right? I would pay that off. Well it's hard to say without knowing the exact situation, but generally is someone can beat my TPTK and it's not level 1, then good for them.

Here I think it would depend on how well I was stealing. If I thought I could win just be stealing, I might fold (obviously he's active defending his own blind, but may he lets you steal when he's not in the BB, I don't know). But I think you're ahead here more often than behind, by a large margin. This is the third time in a row, if I'm understanding you, that he's doing this to you. Given this, what are the odds he has a better hand than top pair, 2nd best kicker? Not too good, certainly not 50/50.

There's a lot of draws possible he could be banking on, plus he may think you'll fold no matter what, since you've already folded twice.

Once the blinds go up again, I wouldn't raise this guy, unless it's all in. That's one way to keep him from re-raising you all in.

What tewall said...

I'm fairly sure hes just standardly pwning you...

I call this one. Unless he's smart enough to know to set you up for the kill the 3rd time...you're dominating in this hand.

You really cannot expect a much better flop than the one you got. I call this push in a heartbeat.
