guess i shoulda bet flop, butt, obvioulsy this was one case where i thought i could slow play...

oh sry,

BB was holding JJ

Raise preflop, flop is fine, bet strong on turn. Begin the name calling on the river.

raise pre first of all. raise flop second. bet turn third. and i guess call river. lets not forget you have the second nuts until river. you beat TT+ and lower pp's. you beat so much stuff that he stacks with. i probably raise river on second thought. he bets this with a 9, 8, J and any over pair im sure. also reads on villain would be nice. like how tight a raiser is he?

the whole table was loose/aggressive, was counting on him pushing until i saw the 3rd 8 with 2 others still in pot.

badly played either way.

The flop call is perfectly acceptable, but the rest is horrible. What is with not betting the turn here? The 8 on the turn is perhaps the best possible card for you! Also raise river.

I dont think you're being results-oriented enough...


Bet turn. Lots.
