Final Pot: $12.40

CO wins $12.76 (net +$4.66)

cozacu lost $4.15

PF= std iso.

Flop= bet for value, after he raises I put him on some weaker Jx, and draws... sometimes he`s got the TT,JJ,22 or JT ofc. (sometimes slowplayed Pf monsters QQ+)

Turn= His check looks odd, the board is very wet I doubt he`s checking a set or two pair, so I bet for value + protection.

- his second x/raise now looks very strong, we started deep, and putting @140BB in with TPTK vs unknown is spewing so I decided to fold the hand.

What do you think?
How would you play this hand?

Hey Cozacu,

Most opponents won't c/r a worse J here. They will check-raise their sets, and then with a much lower frequency (at these limits) thing like draws/semi-bluffs.

Against most unknown opponents you can fold flop here without feeling too bad about it. If opponent is the type to check-raise bluff a lot you are going to find out about it, even on anonymous tables - at which point you would obviously defend the AJ.

As played turn bet is fine, although since you are essentially betting for protection a small sizing works good, perhaps $1.70 or so. Fold vs turn c/r is fine imo.
