Message: [QUOTE="primrose, post: 7200314, member: 1036998"] I did forget! Thanks for reminding me. [B]Preflop: [/B]yo, so you said "still not betting large enough", comparing it to your last hand. But in your last hand, the 3bet sizing was an inaccuracy. This time it's a blunder (in chess terminology of inaccuracy/mistake/blunder). You're out of position, and also exploitatively, Jacks is a hand that [I]really [/I]doesn't want to go multiway. The standard sizing for OOP is 4x, with an intermediate caller it would be 5x, and exploitatively I'd size up a little, so a reasonable sizing here would be 11BB. Betting 5BB is really not where it's at. [B]Flop: [/B]in general, you shouldn't bet 50%. 50% is rarely the correct size. Now granted it's not obvious here how large you should bet and maybe 50% is actually reasonable, but as a habit, don't bet 50%. I think probably I want to bet bigger here. Your hand is just very vulnerable, equity protection is a big factor here. This will telegraph to your opponents what you have, but it's super low stakes, so I assume they won't take advantage of it. Maybe just over 60% Pot, a little below 2/3. [B]Turn: [/B]Both players called you. Gross. But actually it doesn't make a lot of sense for them to have the Q, so betting is reasonable. But 2/3 is way too big. No worse hand is going to call 2/3 here. You should bet 1/3 at most. Draws don't have as much equity here and a Q is never folding, so the large size doens't make a lot of sense. [B]River: [/B]well I just said no worse hand will ever call this big of a Turn raise and you got called, so you're most likely behind now. ... but the price is so good that I'm calling anyway. Who knows what he does. maybe it's TT. Or A8. With the WTF factor of this entire hand and the price, I'm not getting away. But you shouldn't have gotten here like this. [/QUOTE]
