Hey guys!

So this is the first big JJ hand from this session, i have to say i didn't had luck with them :f_cry:
My question here is, are there enoughf worst hands here in BB hands on river to raise him and except value from worst? Now that i look back, my best scenerio is to split, but he looks like a regular he will even fold a set here....

Thanks!

I would most likely just check behind the flop multi way, because it’s tough to get 2 players out of the hand and there is a decent change at least 1 player hit at least top pair. As played you are only calling to split the pot on the river I think and sometimes he could have KJ, but most of the time he would fold that on the flop.

Cheers,

Hi SDK1987!

Thanks for the review!
But if i check flop, then whats the plan? Call 1 street and fold on turn on agression, or fold flop? Isn't that too weak to fold on flop?

I understand BB called with 22-JJ and Broadways a UTG open raiser.
OTF: Cbet is ok but I wouldn't bet too big because you are looking for protection and value betting at the same time. I would choose 1/2 pot. As BB just called I took him out from AQ, KQ, set of 9 or 3.
What ranges he would call: KJ, TJ, TQ.

OTT: 8 helped a lot of villain range and check behind is the best option

OTR: Against his range, you were ahead just of QT / TJ a tie / KJ way behind - your hand has a lot of reverses implied odds and I would choose to just call OTR.

I play Nl2 and maybe my analysis is totally wrong

In general we can exclude KJ from villains range since we have set an vbet OTF. But most likely we're just calling for the split. Sometimes he's picking up a set or 2pair OTR. Those hands won't call ur minraise, because minraising this board means, u have the Jack. So i defenitely would prefer the call.
