Ugh, spots like this make me cringe. Just sat down, few reads. I've been playing tight for about an orbit or so since I got here.. havn't seen villain raise preflop yet, but he's limped a couple times. Havn't seen anything particularly interesting to note here.

Advice on all streets is welcome, especially the flop. I see legitimite arguments for calling, raising, and folding here, although folding seems very weak. As played, I don't think I can call or raise the second barrell on the turn. Thoughts on this hand?

in hindsight, it looks like the best line may be to raise the flop, and check behind on the turn. Hopefully get a cheap showdown.

I'm a freak, but I think raising the turn is a better line.

yep or just fold to probably save yourself $25 and wait til you have better reads

but i could never do something like that

I agree. Whenever I'm done with a session I always go back and look at some hands and I can frequently find hands I think I played poorly. This being one of them.

I think folding the flop is better then just calling.

Thoughts?

This hand occured maybe 1 orbit into the table and was his first preflop raise. I played a while longer and he is 27/3. I think he has JJ-AA there nearly every time after firing the second barrell.

edit: 27/3 after 95 hands.
