I essentially treat pocket jacks like I would pocket 6s. I’d call an open (or open if I’m first to act) and try to set mine. You will rarely have an overpair due to any other face card being higher.

I guess the one difference is that I’d potentially call a 3-bet, depending on the player that 3-bet pre flop

I was much more mad at AA when AA lost and it happened many times. But with KK I won more often.

I would like to know from CardsChat friends, how many times they received a pair of JJ , and managed to win the hand with them. I don't know about you but I can count on my fingers the times I received this pair and pulled my hand, either I'm very cold feet or this pair of JJ doesn't like me. I appreciate the comments.
if I have such a hand against me, either higher than the card or on steel, you will see the queen of the king against whom it is very difficult to play aggressively and you play being afraid that someone has these cards and you lose

I wouldn't know how many times I won with JJ in hand, but I'm sure there were more times I lost than I won

When you've pair like JJ (or QQ KK AA) or something like that then losing with them is probably not as bad as seeing everyone in your table folding before you can actually make good use of these cards ...

Therefore in cases like that it's probably never wrong to unleash Rage Monster ...

I have also been angry with JJs quite a bit but in today's freeroll I got them twice in a row and called an all-in once and they kept their value and once I flopped a full house with J66 and I checked and the guy thankfully shoved into me which I happily called. :)

I lost many times with JJ too. I also see many players playing JJ like it was KK, AA, raising too much or going all in with JJ.

I used to lose on different sites with J J with a difference of a couple of minutes, first I flew out of the tournament on one, and then after 3 minutes on the other

J J and A J are my most unloved cards, I do not know how to play with them

When you hit a flop like that with JJ and villain is still pushing all-in, you have to kiss JJ.:ROFLMAO:

On the other hand, I'm still getting clubbed with this pair, I think it's because I used to use these hooks a lot to catch fish and now they're catching me.:ROFLMAO:

I think jj is very hard to play. You loose alot of time against better hands, and if you have the better hand is not easy to get some relevant pay out.

I don't like the pair of JJ, I won it a few times, it's impressive how it doesn't hold against two high cards, for example AQ or AK.

the more times I would like to remember, the most frustrating thing is when I came out cracked and the River beats my opponent's score... kkkk

me personally i like JJ more than QQ . i know it sounds weird but i have more often ran into a catastrophe with QQ than JJ . because JJ i dont overplay and can let it go . but QQ is too good for playing it slow or not betting much and i would go often all in with it just to see that my opponent has AA KK ..or AK and hits his A or K .

I rarely get angry with JJ because I know how to play them. She made me get mad at AA more times.
