Hey everyone:
I am new to poker and have had a lot of difficulty playing pocket Jacks. For instance, if its an unopen pot should I be re-raising? If its a raised pot, should I call or 3 bet? Here is an example of a hand that I had. Please let me know what you think of how I played it and what you would have done. Thanks.
