| JJ early postion..Did I play this hand right?? Ok so I was playing rush poker and the guy under the gun raised 3xbb I was right behind him and reraised about 3x his bet. Folded around back to him where he raised again about 2 1/2 my raise. I folded. Right play or not? what would you have done? |

| + 1 to atlanta BUT IMO I NEVER play JJ that agro anymore. I don't think there is any reason to reraise with JJ unless I'm short stacked. Then it's all in. Some things you left out. what was your/villian stack sizes What were blinds? did you have any read/notes on villian ITM? bubble? where in trny? |

| JJ sucks...! I rather play pair of 10's...!!! In 50-60% I get JJ, there is a higher pair on the table. Damn, I hate them so much... To strong to fold and to weak to bet... Only beginners would play them strong... ...so I think I am not a beginner anymore, but still not a good player I like to be... |

| Why did you 3bet? There are a couple of reasons you would do this: 1. For value. Your hand is ahead of UTG's range, and you're 3betting to get value from that. 2. As a steal. You're expecting that you'll be able to take down the pot pf, or on the flop, often enough to justify 3betting here by representing a big hand. Both of these generally require reads on UTG - if UTG opens an extremely wide range, JJ does pretty well against that range. If UTG plays fit of fold postflop, and calls 3bets pf, again we're in a pretty good situation. In 25nl 6max, against an unknown, I don't mind flatting or 3betting - UTG ranges in 6max tend to be relatively wide (22+,AJs+,AQ+, KQs), so JJ doesn't fare badly (I don't think everyone will agree with me on this fwiw). In 25nl full ring, against an unknown, I'm not all that keen on 3betting, UTG ranges tend to be pretty tight. Folding to the 4bet is good readless. |

| To play JJ on early position always sucks because it not a made hand. I hate to play it personally. Answering to your post i believed u played JJ correctly and more if u were playing rush since people only play premium hands. So there is a great chance that u have urserf against a monster hand. To play JJ's is always a crap shoot. |

| re: JJ early postion..Did I play this hand right?? poker Nice fold. Basically you don't want to risk the rest of your stack with such a weak hand. Even if they had an AK it is a 50-50 proposition which is not worth the risk. Better to risk your money when your have seen some cards first. I liked your play. You choose when to battle, not your opponent. |
