Both Villains are big fish. Both pretty aggro preflop and call preflop 3bets with wide ranges.

Villain 1 is 51/28/1. Ive seen Villain 1 calling preflop re-raises with AJ and AQ (the AQ was against me) and then check/call all the way down on A high flops on both occasions.

Villain 2 is 75/25/0.5. He seems to like sooted cards and hes already lost a buyin to me when he button raised A8o and called my reraise from the SB. He then called a cbet and turn overbet push on a 7469 board and lost to my AA.

On to the hand.

Stacks

Villain 1 (UTG): $225.99
Villain 2 (Button):$116.39
Hero (SB) : $202.50
Someguy (BB) : Some money

I have :Js: :Jh:

Villain 1 raises $3, Villain 2 calls, I reraise $12, Villain 1 re-reraises $21, Villain 2 calls, I call.

Pot: $64 Flop: :Td:

Everyone checks.

Pot: $64 Turn : :Td: :Jd:

I bet $35, 2 calls.

Pot: $169 River: :Td: :Jd:

I push for $147. Villain 1 covers, Villain 2 has $60 left.


Id appreciate comments on turn and river bet sizing. Also, does anyone like a flop bet? Truthfully I hadnt decided if I was going to check/raise or check/fold at the time.
gabe: Ive dropped almost 100k in the past 35 days.

bigspenda73: But how much did you win?

I like all streets.

Flop check is good, you have relative position, and villain1 may be a fish but he probably doesn't 4-bet to light.

Maybe bet a little more on the turn, like 40-45. This makes it easier to get it all-in on the river vs villain 1.
