Pre-Flop: (45) J♠ J♣ dealt to Hero (BTN)
4 folds, CO raises to 120, Hero raises to 360, 2 folds, CO calls 240

Flop: (765) 8♦ 4♦ Q♥ (2 Players)
CO bets 210, Hero raises to 1,095 and is All-In, CO calls 885

Turn: (2,955) 4♣ (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

That weak looking bet on the flop can't be AQ... or can it? Critically I have no reads here.

Hi ManniXXX, I usually flat the 4BB raise from CO with JJ, but 3betting is OK.

as played, on the flop, I would probably call and get it in on a non- :diamond: turn. I don't like the shove as much because we don't really get value from very much.

Since you got position you could call. Without reads I'd fold on the turn if he betted strong, is that bad?

I don't like folding to a bet on this turn. We already have a great deal of our stack in after the flop action, and I think we are up against a flushdraw (as opposed to Qx) often enough to make the turncall on a blank card.

Ty guys. Villain was overplaying 99 in this case, a bigger flop bet probably makes me fold here. Not sure if that's good or bad.

16s are still pretty fishy imo I was expecting better.

ah of course, bluffing with hands with showdown value is also well within typical villain's ranges at this limit ;).
