A good nights sleep by the look of things.....u were up early posting this. Lol
The key is, if you get to take a flop, not to overplay them if the flop comes bad. For reasons which I can't really understand, most players struggle to let go of Jacks on a bad flop.
If playing relatively shallow - say, 12 or 15 x BB's, & facing a Raise in front of you, try jamming & taking it down without a flop. Most times, you'll get it through, but if & when you get looked up, it's likely to be against big Aces - A-K, A-Q, against which you are slight favourite, & you may even get looked up by A-J & A-T, in which case you are a big favourite. T-T, 9-9, & even 8-8 & 7-7 may even look you up, which is perfect.
J-J is the 4th best starting hand in poker pre-flop, & on 6-max Tables, you will be pretty unlucky to run into an overpair. However, once we take a flop with this hand, there is a goodly chance that any number of holdings will out-flop us - A-K, A-Q, K-Q, K-J, Q-J, A-J, A-T etc are all likely candidates. I don't know the stats, but I believe that almost half of the time, overcards to the Jacks will appear on the flop.
So, either try to take it down without seeing a flop, but if we do see a flop, & it comes bad, chuck them in the muck.
Throwing them away to any action in front of you will cost you winning opportunities over the long-term, so try & adjust your play here.
Let me know how this goes for you, please.
i.e. there is a 57% chance of there being at least one over-card.
A 57% chance of a card higher than a Jack on the flop is exactly in line with what I said - "nearly half the time". Ish........
Speak for yourself, Mike. He's feisty, obdurate, tetchy, curmudgeonly, & old.

This one I believed I was ahead on the flop so the turn was a blank in my mind, His bet I believed to be a semi bluff at the flush when the 4th spade comes I thought about it for a bit and decided to call with there only being two spades out there that can beat me.

This one the guy would have bet out at that board with any two cards 90% of the time it's not a terrible board for my hand there are two overs but it does give me a gut shot and anything but a pair in your hole will have missed more often than not.

Hi Cashbox,
I'm not going to comment upon the hands, because that's NOT the point you are making, I don't believe. In fact, I have not even studied the hands you have Posted, because it's not relevant.
The point is, & many, many, players write to me about this - is that you were mocked because of the way you played some of the hands.
Well I'd say this.
It is YOUR money, & you are free to play, or not play, any hand, any way you wish. It is nobody else's business if you make good or bad plays, or whether you or they win or lose, unless they pay your Entry Fees. And they do not.
For what it's worth, 90% of chatbox abuse comes from players who LOST the hand. Which says it all, really. A significant number of poker players are not very good losers, but you must not let them spoil your enjoyment of the game by their ill-manners or lack of backbone.
It's your money, CashBox, & don't EVER let anyone else tell you how you should spend it. It's none of their business.
I hope you continue to enjoy your Poker - because that is the only reason recreational players - & 99% of Sky Poker players ARE recreational - have to play the game.
Take care now.
Is this really true with a name like cashbox?
Something to ponder
