How to play Jacks?

[deluns28]

wtf! with the video.. LOLs

I would raise normally preflop then flat call if reraised. I will think so many times calling a shove.

For the postflop, you just becareful with the draws, set, overpairs and overcards.
Jacks is high risk and high reward cards. Play it carefully.

ROFL never seen this before, but it gave me a good laugh!

I hate JJ, 95% of the time, I lose with them. Lost some big tournaments near the bubble with them as well so some bad memories with them. Tread carefully when you pick up them fish hooks.

Don't know if there is a "right way" to play JJ. For me, If I've decided to play them I'm gonna be aggressive preflop to narrow the field and hopefully increase my odds.

Then play it by feel after the flop.

IS the best deuce,after AAs--QQs, so its indicated 2 raise them from all positions,early,middle or late

You want the pot right now. You have to raise big.

If two overcards on the flop, have to be defensive.

If one, continue aggression.

good thinking

Easiest thing would be to fold them and not worry about losing chips.

Funny. I watched the video, and was like "F*** me, it's always like this". I have the feeling that whenever I have them, I loose a lot of chips.


And then I opened HM2, and checked..
Out of 10K hands, got them 41 times. JJ won 75% of the time, and has a stats around +726bb/100 hand.

And then I looked at "Won hand %" it's the third best. After 77, where I won 80% of the time (got them 30 times).

Funny poker

Dont check ca;;, bet it. Betting is good for several reasons, but one reason to bet is to get information. See if someone likes the flop and go from there, but if you feel you are beat just let it go.

If two overcards on the flop, have to be defensive,so check-fold
