Scared of what ? You have high pp ...If you gonna misplay ,then they'll outdraw you much more often , rather don't play , and spend time to learn :p

bankroll m8 , and all fears disappear !!! ;) - and a good poker play , calling with jacks , seems to me like a very bad play in a spot like that ... against tight aggressive , would be another story!

I loose them whenever I play them and get beaten whenever opponent has them.
JJ is a complete misteryous to me.I cannot fold them I cannot play them.
I call them jotos and play them anyway all in and know I'm out.:evil:

What is the point in paying attention to such situations. Such situations are rare and not typical.

Hi

I usually play my Jacks with a fairly big preflop bet and if a loose aggressive player re-raises me then I just go all-in and hope for the best.

You have a lot of options, I think the one you stated is probably one of the worse options though.

You can 4-bet preflop / get it in if you think jacks is good enough against his range. (position matters too, you didn't mention this).

Generally speaking, I think peeling a single street is good on that flop but his range is weighted too heavily towards aces and you have too many better hands yourself to check/call three streets. I'd prefer a fold at some point as played.

I would have 4bet all in against this particular player. Jacks are too hard to play post flop against an aggressive player. So when an A K or Q come on the flop are you always just going to fold at that point?

If you felt he was that loose you should've reraised him pre flop . You should've felt you were way ahead . After flop then you are guessing .

Poker

Not bet on the flop, the owner of A is done, it is normal that this happens in poker. All hands depend on small details. Now you call or is in full ??:confused:

Your chances are still very high and you are still in front, but if this tournament is the last chips , and at stake is getting into the prize zone - then fold
