Default I can\'t play JJ...

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 handed) converter
MP3 is 57/11/2...
Preflop: Hero is CO with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP3 raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, MP3 calls.

Flop: (7.50 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP3 bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, MP3 calls.

Turn: (5.75 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP3 bets</font>, Hero calls.
Should I have either dumped or raised again here? I was leaning towards folding...

River: (7.75 BB) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP3 bets</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 8.75 BB

My line is to call down all the way, unless some scary overcards come.

The way you played it fold the turn. Was you planning on calling the river if the A didn't fall?

I probably wouldn't raise that flop. I'd be folding that turn.

I would call down unless, as sharpie said, aces/queens fell. A queen wouldn't make me fold as easily, but the way you played it I think it's an easy turn fold.

On the river i was going to call down until the Ace hit. It didn't help matters that it was the 3rd club as well...I figured i can't beat aces/kings or a flush...

I would fold the turn here. He bet with one overcard to your pair and then called. He bet again with two overcards to your pair, I just don't like my chances in that situation. Not to be looking for monsters under the bed but KQ looks like a very likely hand here...

After you raise the flop and he still bets after q fells, I am folding this.

good flop raise, however i dump this when he leads into me on the turn again. if he checked the turn id bet and then check behind the river.

Even if both the turn and river are bricks? MP2 very well could be betting a worse pair, seeing Hero's raise on the flop as a free card play on a flush draw with overcards that probably missed.

I do not think the turn fold is 'easy,' but if it's wrong it's close. That board is really scary.

I probably wouldn't have raised the flop, but since you did, I think his turn bet means a lot.

Now, maybe his aggression is really high (I played against somebody with a 9 aggression on flop and 5+ on turn the other day) and you didn't post that info.

So I take his turn bet to mean that he actually has a hand as opposed to an underpair (a frequent LAG raising hand) or a flush draw.

I dump this on the turn in your hand.
