I couldn't post this in the analysis section the way it is. :S


$1-180 man SnG
Blinds 25-50
Villain-$1745 VPIP-25 PFR-10 (UTG+1)
Hero-$2299 table image was passive aggressive.

Since I can't upload a video on here, or don't know how to I will just explain this hand and my thought going through it.

I was dealt pocket JJ's in the big blind and instantly put into a slump because of how much energy this hand takes to play. I usually like to 3bet this hand and move on to the next one. I was expecting one of the more lose passive players to either limp or min raise and I 3bet and either win it preflop or on the flop. But that didn't happen the villain in the utg+1 position raise it up to $150. My first thought was to 3 bet pretty big if someone else just cold calls the raise. But it was folded around to me and I decided to just call the bet, maybe some what disguising my hand. Flop comes out 9-4-5 rainbow. Looked like and alright flop except for the fact that the villains range was somewhere in the 99+ and AJo+ category. So I decided to check/raise here with the intent of folding on a 4bet shove hoping to lose the minimum if he does have QQ+ or a set of 99's. That's exactly what happens I check he raise to $157 I 3bet to $521 and he tanks for about 20 seconds and shoves. I just can't see this being a bluff and fold. I would like to get your opinion on how I played this hand and maybe get some different input for future situations like this.
