Default A lot of calling with JJ

UTG+1 is 14/6/1.61 but this is a limited 50 or so hands.
MP2 is 55/8/0.31 over a similar limited sample because I don't mine this level.

I've only been at the table a couple orbits and haven't done much.

I think I would cap flop or perhaps 3-bet turn. UTG+1 could have AK with Ah. I'm not ready to give anyone credit for flopping a flush or hitting a set of aces on the turn until I get raised.

i don't like just calling on the flop, OR just calling on the turn. your equity is too high vs a flush draw esp. 3 handed so unless the guy flopped the flush you want as much going in as possible. sometimes i wait til the turn with a hand like AJ here, for obvious reasons.

to me the turn is an obvious 3 bet.. by the way, why no preflop cap?

i would feel sick not putting in more action on this hand

UTG+1 check 3bet this flop, look at his stats. I think I like this hand just fine.

I think I really out-thought myself preflop. Even against a 6 and an 8 PFR I should cap preflop.

I don't play 15/30 and I'm sure it's more aggro than I'm used to, but I think the default by-the-book PF play is to fold JJ against a raise and a reraise. Looking at these stats, a 6 PFR opens and an 8 PFR 3-bets (and if he's playing over half his hands but only raising 8% of them, I doubt he's 3-betting with anything worse than JJ. AQs/AKo maybe. But you're also not closing the action. I dunno... everyone here loves playing JJ for any number of bets PF, but it's close for me.

I think this is an easy cap preflop. A 55/8 is 3betting an enormous range of hands here from 77+, KQ+ and AJ/AQ+.

I would cap the flop and 3 bet the turn. I'm still putting these guys on a fairly large range that does not involve a Flush or set of Aces at this point. Plus you have tons of outs against a made flush. Stop hanging out with nits [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

i didn't even think about those stats, since you said you had a very limited # of hands on them..

ok i lied, it's because i never look at the stats, but looking back i don't think you can draw a conclusion that makes you call instead of raise preflop

Against a pfr of 6 and a pfr of 8 after thousands and thousands of hands this becomes close to a fold. Given that you have such limited data, you should be jamming the [censored] out of this because the default assumption is that at 15/30 players are more aggressive.

Why didn't you 3-bet the turn?
