Very strange way to play JJ+ or a set. I just can't see him turning up with JJ+ here.
I make the mistake of calling these too much myself weather it's on the micro cash or MTT.
if he has been limping and calling then it's a clear sign of someone who has to have it before going all in.
some might think he would do in with AK, I don't even think he would raise that pre instead he is probably going to limp call then donk if the card comes on the flop.
we might not play sets or premiums like this but fish will play any good hand like this including sets and premiums.
they will chase them down to the very last street but the minute they hit they will donk it even over bet not thinking at all about our chance of calling.
premium pairs and sets are always played badly by fish and it's usually in on of these ways
1) they can't wait to get it in so will over bet often without even thinking about the board itself.
2) their are the very slow and passive ones who will limp and check call preflop and flops, they begin getting aggressive on the turn although some will be so passive and not have did any bet.
If the limp caller is the same one who has did it in this hand, then we just putting random guesses in on what type of play this villain who has open raised actually is and I'm thinking he is more like a maniac or LAG than a fish or passive player.
Felt like AK/ AQ or mid PP, wrong again. ( way to donk off 60 BBs there dave wp! )
Mixed views again!! Never straight forward this game eh?? Thanks again all.
Just cos passive villians take off, it doesn't mean they have the nuts, what it means is that the player has a hand that they think is effectively the nuts - BIG difference. Plenty of bad players (think we can assume they're bad from OP) over value hands and just think, wow I have an overpair! etd.
if we saying they over value middle pairs AK AQ KQ what we should be asking is why was it just a call preflop?
if we going to call a jam with 1010 post flop then why not do a 3bet preflop.
they might not all do what this one did with his JJ but I've read a lot and what lots of sites which offer tips say is this. Loose/passive poker players seldom raise the pot unless they have got a big hand. So unless you are certain you have them beat, respect their raises and fold. my guess is that is what this one sounds like since he is limp calling lots.
I went out the main when a villain limped called pre with KJs then called the flop but the turn comes Q he gets his straight and right away he raised my bet so i go all in and he shows it.
I had AK raised pre and was called i cbet on the flop which had AKx he then calls a 10 comes on the turn and we both check then on the river he does a full pot bet and what does he have QJ.
A one with K8s limp calls pre while i raise with my 77 then on the flop comes 2 hearts and he check calls the 3rd heart comes on the turn and he checks and so i check then on the river he does a full pot bet and again he reveals the nut flush.
One who limped with A10 and called when i open raised then did a full pot bet on the flop which had A J 10 rainbow.
