Raise pre-flop. I would check behind on the river.

This play is really bad because you're expecting these preflop raisers to at least have KQ AQ AK maybe AJ (3better maybe pocket pair) or even worse KK AA QQ etc. so no flops are really good for you. Hitting the J would probably be safe but you really don't know and it could be expensive to find out, and the odds of hitting the J aren't great.


And you want to check that river as Fnord says because there's not many hands that guys will be staying in with in that pot that aren't ace high.
