JJ in Big Blind 10-20 Hand

[Lin Sherman]

Loosish 10-20 game. I've just sat down in the big blind. Half the players are familiar regulars, half are strangers. My hand is J [img]/forums/images/icons/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/forums/images/icons/club.gif[/img] .

Unknown Middle Position limps. He's 30ish with a big stack of chips in front of him but doesn't look like a shark. Known 80-year-old Extreme Calling Station limps behind him, local Omaha/8 Pro limps in the cutoff, button folds, Unknown Airhead limps in the SB with a small stack. For better or worse, I check.

Airhead checks, I bet, Unknown Middle Position hitches noticeably and calls, Extreme Calling Station calls, O/8 Pro folds, Airhead calls.

I check, Unknown MP hesitates again, then bets, Extreme Calling Station calls (means nothing - he never folds before the river, and rarely then), Airhead calls ALL-IN for $15. I call.

Airhead (who is all-in) tosses his cards in and leaves the table. I check, Unknown MP bets, Extreme Calling Station thinks and calls. I call.

Unknown turns over Q [img]/forums/images/icons/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/forums/images/icons/heart.gif[/img] , Extreme Calling Stations mucks, I lose.
