First post: This site really helps not to go on tilt.
PP 100 NL, blinds .50/1.00
Two callers limp in front of me, I'm dealer with KdKs. I raise to 3xB.B BB and the limpers call. Flop is Jc 4s 7d. BB bets $5, I raise to $15 he raises to $25., I call. Turn is a blank, he bets $25.00, I call, River is a blank he bets $25.00 and I(too stupid I know), call he turns over J4o for two pair.
Should I have laid this down on the flop when he reraised me? or on the turn?
BTW - I didn't tilt, just kicked myself for blowing the 25 on the turn and 25 on the river

Unless I knew something about this guy, I would have dropped it on the flop re-raise from him. Lots of people, like myself, like to just limp in pocket jacks (I know that's not what he had but it sure looks like a set) But besides that, it takes balls of steel to reraise like that with nothing since you were the preflop raiser and reraised him on the flop already.

Last night i had AQ, raised PF, one caller behind me. flop A 8 3 i lead out 2/3 pot and this Op behind me value min raised.... we both had deep 200bb stacks so I gave him credit.. thought to myself this showdown aint gonna be cheap and i got outa there. He would of easily had AK or a set, either that or huge balls to outplay me so fair enough.
U need to be able to get away from these hands, and these seem to be the situations to.

It depends on what he wants to do. I usually open for 4x in these games and will sometimes raise to 4x behind a limper or two just to take control of the hand (depending on table texture, opponents, yada, yada, yada.) I want them to call with whatever, miss and fold the flop when they miss; often. Until they figure out that I'm getting away with highway robbery, then we'll start playing some poker...
