Preflop: Hero is MP3 with J, J.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, 1 fold, Hero raises, 2 folds, SB calls, 1 fold, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls.

Flop: (11 SB) 3, 5, A (5 players)
SB checks, UTG+1 checks, UTG+2 checks, MP1 checks, Hero bets, SB raises, UTG+1 folds, UTG+2 folds, MP1 folds, Hero...

Alarming to get c/r at a passive table and hard to judge with almost no hands on villain (32/5 in those). I don't like taking a b/f line on the flop but if I'm behind--as seems likely--I only have 2 outs.
Oh, no! Not another learning experience!

Hoping to hit one of two remaining jacks? I think this is an easy fold against a passive player, especially since he's check-raising in a multiway pot.

cool, I was looking at the size of the pot and the fact that we're winning at the very least 6 more SBs if we hit plus the times he gets tricky again and checks back the turn to us as well.

The fact that we close the action and are in position makes me feel we can see uno mas card senior

Fold. If the rest of the table called his check-raise as well, then we could peel and expect to get paid if we hit. But heads up we are just throwing money away.
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.

Well, I was thinking that 14:1 isn't enough for a 2-outer. Those extra SBs may be offset by the chance that he improves his set or 2-pr to a boat.

I confess I peeled either because I thought about possible implied odds or because I was on tilt. (I forget.) Anyway, I ended up checking behind on the turn and river (26) and lost to A5 (Top 2 pair).
