Default Re: 5/10 nl, Top set JJJ

I'm pushing on the flop.

I heart no variance $230 profit. But ok, you make it $500 and he calls. He calls with what here? Pot is now $1.1k or some such.

Flush/straight draw, overpair or (pray to God he has this) AJ (in order of likelihood). Turn is A. AA now kills you but you're calling any bets anyway with a set of Jacks anyway. Push is correct; there are no odds for flush/straight draw to call and plenty for AJ. Overpair other than AA isn't paying you off anyway on the river.

I like it.

You guys really advocate pushing top set when I have about 1500 total once he's only invested about 230? You guys are on drugs or I am.

I probably make the reraise 600 or I call and push over the top on the turn. Pretty much the same as how you played it. I realize that reraising to 600 or pushing is effectively the same thing because of pot commitment, but I still do it because it looks easier to call.

i think people here love blowing their hands and not getting value. i think this was played optimally, and if you lost to KQ, c'est la vie, or if he folded a decent made hand or draw, such is poker.

SB checks, Hero bets 75, SB makes it 200 all day

All the more reason to push here.

Now add in some other hands you will push with here that are aren't too far away from coinflip equity with the hange of hands you will be called with.

I think a push on the flop sucks.
