Looks fine to me, I would play it the same if Villan has been continuation betting consistently. As a standard play, I checkraise the flop and bet out from there.

3-bet or fold preflop depending on your opponent(you don't want to let the BB in for cheap). The way you played it preflop, I would definately just checkraise the flop.

Why confused? Most of the time they're calling you down with Ax where x may have giving them a lower pair. Looks good to me.

I 3 bet the flop, your still vulnerable. The cold call preflop was nasty as well.

I'd probably bet/call or even check/call the river depending on my read. 3bets on four-to-a-straight boards always scare me :P
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

I agree I hate the PF cold call, either 3 bet of fold it... as for the flop you miss bets raise it... when the turn comes down he has either at weakest a flush draw, made set, or made straight... river improves your hand however I think taking you turn line and river line you are in the long run going to loose money find out where you are on cheaper streets, a lot of times you do it for value as well against a maniac you'll be looking at a 3bet on the river a lot, when he calls I think your good when he 3 bets your not, you gain 1bb when ahead but loose 2bb when behind...

So I really don't like any street... to be frankly honest, however the river is debatable... you ended up I the turn spot you did because you didn't raise the flop... if you wait till the turn to raise TPTK then what would you raise on the flop? To me I think you are leaking money here…

as for the JJ hand that is standered however given he cold called pf and then called you lead flop and turn that say K rag to me... got any reads?
