JJ UTG-very boring

4/8 Live
BB is actually a local Hold 'Em dealer. He is too loose PF, but plays decently well post flop.

Hero is UTG+2 with two black jacks. 2 folds, Hero raises, folds around to BB who calls.

Flop: K 4 K rainbow
BB bets, Hero raises, BB calls.
Turn: 5
BB bets, Hero....

Unless he has exactly AQ, 67, 23, or 36 he doesn't have more than 3-4 outs if you're ahead, and you obviously have 2 outs if behind, so I like call/call.
I don't like raising the flop for the same reasons.

I like the flop raise, shows good aggression. I really don't like him betting into me again. Is he a guy that has been doing that all day? I probably just call down, but I don't mind folding either if this is something this guy will do and your read on him is good.

Without a better read you can simply call down, betting the river if checked to. Much closer to a raise than a fold.

the bet concerned me as well.

i had a decent tell; he had a bad tendency to stall his betting decision(raise, call, fold) with a good hand, like he was confused....

Hmmm, villain turns over 55 or K5 for the boat on the turn?

like i said, he plays decent postflop. what i failed to mention is that his image of me is pretty good, that is he is one that would respect my raises. after assessing the fact that he knew i raised pf, raised on the flop and he still bet into me told me i was likely behind. also being a small pot HU with 2 outs to improve, i folded my jacks and he turned over K9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
