$4 NL HE Full Ring: Jacks at 2nl
Here's a hand where I got dealt pocket jacks in the BB. First, my reads:
UTG- doesn't matter because he got out of the hand
MP- LAG, but sort of solid(for 2nl)
CO- LAG but would always try to steal.
So first I'm dealt jacks in the BB. awesome! UTG raises and then i think i can reraise but then the MP does that for me. Then the CO raises again! SB calls. I really wanted to either lay down my jacks or reraise all in since i knew that either UTG or the MP would raise again.
I decided to call and wait to see how big the next person's raise was which was just enough to put the CO all in. For some reason, I didn't give the CO much credit for his hand because of the way he'd been playing so the only one i was really worried about was the guy in MP. I knew i was probably dealing with AA/KK/QQ. I decided to just call and see a flop so atleast i'd still be left with some money incase nothing hit.
UTG with $7.72
MP with $2.73
CO with $1.00
BTN with $8.26
SB with $3.74

Hero ???
I know i should have layed them down but when i was about to i just kept thinking of this thread where i asked if i should have held onto AK despite all the raising(totally different situation but the main point was that I should have held onto AK instead of folding):

A lot of people said at 2nl, people are going to be playing junk cards like they're strong so i shouldn't be so worried/easy to fold.
Comment please, i don't care if you have negative things to say about it i'm glad to hear all opinions
