Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6948340, member: 397965"] Its an awkward spot for sure, because he basically pots it. So you are not getting the best odds. And while he probably does this with a bad hand far more often than a good one, you still dont have showdown value with J high. And even if you improve to top pair or a flush, its not always going to be the best hand. So I think, its ok to make a tight fold here and look for a better spot. But you can also call and see a turn. Pot will be 21BB, and you will have 31BB left, so its not like, you will have committed yourself. And maybe there is some frequency of him checking the turn when called. In which case you can check back and see all 5 cards without investing any more. I would not jam here, because I think, you are not getting quite enough folds, and when you get called, you you always behind for all your chips. [/QUOTE]
