I was playing this hand on a freeroll, I raised pre flop but pretty small, so I see that as a bad play however I loved that flop with the Jacks, so bet the pot which was pretty big and get an all in, from one player and then another player, I then call in an instant putting these players on A9 at best throughout the table they looked to be poor players to me, I called because of the size of the pot, but in the future do you think I would be better just folding and not making as bigger bet on the flop.


The river was a killer and I was fuming because it was one of the worst plays I had ever seen all in with A and K high, but was my play bad as well?



Any thoughts are very welcome

Well for a start a min raise here achieves nothing imo,and they may have not put you on a hand like JJ so i can maybe see how they both called and the rest is history,xxx

I'm surprised jdfrenzy didn't take this one down. Bottom pair, ace kicker . Good name too Unlucky that man ! He was fkn robbed imo.

Not much to say. You either tend to commit with Jacks or you don't and were well ahead by the end of the turn. It was an unlucky race that you lost with a fortunate Q on the end (3 in 47 chance). The eventual winner betting 2,000 chips into a pot of 3,600 with that hand was crazy. Unlucky.

Raise more pre.

Rest is fine and over the long term you want those sort of calls.

The fact it was a freeroll explains the calls from the others.

Unlucky.
