question of JJ hand

bodie · #1 11-18-2005, 11:36 AM

Hi all,
I was playing 1/2 NL live the other night and was dealt JJ in MP. I raised it to $10.00 and got about 4 callers. The flop was:
3d, 3s, 2d
Checked to me, I bet $15.00. The player two seats to my left raised it to $60.00. All folded to me.
This player had me covered by about $500.00 (I had $300.00) and was an aggressive player, I had seen him turn over winning cards on most occasions.
I was most worried about the diamonds (neither of my J's was a diamond), or that he might have had some oddball hand such as 2,3 suited.
What would you do?
I'll give results in a later post.

bet at least 40 on the flop

Thanks, yvesaint -
I'm still figuring out betting strategy - so I looked too weak on the flop bet?
But what would you do after his raise?

I agree. A lot of aggressive players will pounce on a small continuation type bet here with anything (I do on occasion). However, I'd probably put him on an over-pair or some sort of draw and fire back over the top with a fat raise. IMO, you're ahead here way more often than not.
