personally I would have checked after the turn...you now have 3 over pairs, a straight draw, and a flush draw to worry about. Im sure there are other theories that people will throw out but I play low limits like this and I consider JJ to be only slightly better than 10/10...and I wouldnt be pushing hard with 10/10 on this board..people at low limits who are ahead are going to take another card for a buck they cant help themselves...so if they check back at you then you have way more info than you started with and if you get a 3bb bet you can be pretty sure where your at and if you get a pot sized bet you have the option to fold instead of throwing your chips away.

The reason i was asking the question is i took what i thought was a flop vaule raise (might of actually been closer than i thought on reveiw) to a turn bluff.I already made up my mind before the turn came as long as it wasn't a ace i was going to fire out.That in it self is a bad idea.Then the turn came wasn't a ace i instantly fired out,when on reveiw it's like one of the worst turn cards for my hand right?

184 hands on him and he has not been 3bet.Thought did cross my mind but not a big fan of playing 3bet pots oop.

Uhm I would definitely 3bet pre-flop, probably even in full ring, in 6 max? Automatic 3bet for me. Then that changes the whole dynamic of the hand and that would be a totally different hand..

The way you played it, I personally would raise more on the flop, maybe $1.

I can tell you that the average fold to PF3bet for a PFR of 19 at 5NL 6max is 64%. Hope this helps! Yes I like graphs!

In this spot I am 3betting 100% for value the usual QQ+, AKo/s but I guess you could include JJ here too due to his increased stubbonness factor!

I too could even consider calling this guy with the fishhhooks but I'm more for leading out after the flop with a strong bet.
30c.

I 3-bet pre here. We're strong enough that he can call with worse.

As played (I flat with TT/99 here) I ch/call flop. And it goes ch/ch, bet/c so often it's not funny.
