JJ fits the preflop raise. Think I would've reraised there.

I think he has you beat. He saw the turn action as your willingness to pay for showdown. He knows you're strong here. He puts your hand on the high range. I'm thinking he put you on AJ. He wants a call.

The thing I'm wondering is if you had AJ in that turn spot, would you let him get away with a semibluff reraise without 3-betting back? If he reads you somewhat passive then he might put you on a possible AJ and semibluff anyway. I'm leaning towards not believing the turn bet is a semibluff at all. It just doesn't fit unless it was a poorly thought out semibluff.

Why would you not bet into him with a blank flop?

If his read was that you like to cold call with big pairs, then he knows you can't be drawing, 'cept to two outs. Also, heads up, a check behind with AA isn't quite as dangerous. I think the danger is more than made up for by the deception the play creates.

I was just kidding about the aces though. I think KQ is the most possible holding.

I don't protect against every draw. Sometimes I ignore the draw, based on a lot of different criteria. JJ doesn't check behind this flop regardless. AA is certainly capable.

Never played this high, so take this fwiw. If you think the possibility of him raising the turn on a semi-bluff is a good one, then why not shove it in? Also, given his button raise and depending on how lag he was playing, you have to include 55/66/TT in his range. If he was playing lag and opening a wide range from the button, I think you almost have to reraise this preflop, and be prepared to play for stacks on a safe flop.

He would have to be VERY sure that it was a semibluff for this play to be profitable. This is what makes the semibluff play so powerful. If aces has KQ, he is ~~25% to win on the river with his 11 outs. So he has 25% equity in this pot. However, he'll fold to a push in this case, and hero will win only ~~150 bucks.

If aces is really on a set or aces, he will obviously insta-call your push and you will have 4% equity in a 1200 dollar pot.

So if aces is sitting on a monster even 10-20% of the time he makes this play, hero loses money by pushing over the top in the long run.

I raised on the button with JJ. When he didn't Re-raise me preflop I was about 90% certain he had QQ-AA. So I checked the flop planning to fold to any bet or hit my 2 outer. My J came on the turn and I bwned him.

i dont think i had just called a raise on the table before that. i think his range for me is just any pocket pair aa-22 here. i'm not reraising 22 from blinds, although i might fold it since i probably won't stack him when i hit a set.

good players trap good players by reraising with a wide range preflop so that way the villian never knows when hero actually does have the big pair. thats why my preflop play was bad.

the tough tricky players aren't tricky because they don't rreaise preflop, they are tricky because they reraise lots of hands.
