What you guys think of that JJ hand i played ? Opponent were 22, 20 with 4bet 8 over 78hands.
Too light or standard shove ?
I'm not sure what I would do. 8% 4bet on how many possible occasions? I would perhaps fold, cause for me it looks like best possible outcome will be a flip against AK or perhaps AQ, sometimes we are ahead against 99,TT but most of the time it will be QQ+. But again if I don't have enough sample it would be very tempting for me to call that too...
It's not about how many hands you've got. You could have 1k hands but villain only had lets say 3 spots to 4bet so far.
I also see a difference in 4bet and 4bet shove.
I think the point is the shove. If he would make a regular 4bet you could call and c/f any Axx or actually any non J flop.
But to be honest -> you should post the hand in the hand evaluation section and let some of the judges give you some feedback. I could be totally wrong.
I see you are using HM2, when you mouse over the 4 bet stat, it should have a pop-up that will say something like "8 (12)" which would mean he 4-bet 8% of the 12 times he had the opportunity (or 1 out of 12 hands).
Congrats on a nice start!
I wish you good luck and I'm totally going to follow your blog! ![]()
Comment on your JJ hand:
Villains 4bet is so huge it almost always is QQ+ or AK.
Great to see that you are still on the right way, and that you are crushing NL2 already (even though the samplesize is small it looks pretty good so far).
Keep going like this, going to be an interessting year

Dealing with withdrawals is much much worse than few bad beats, suck outs and coolers here and there. So, did i tilted ? No, not at all ! It made me only STRONGER !
A silver-lining to everything I suppose, it does kind of put things in perspective when you put it that way!
Great stuff bud, keep it going!
