at 10:08 AM, Thursday February 19, 2009 EST Karg, the above hand shows one reason why JJ is one of the most overplayed hands. Until the HERO hit the 2 outer on the river he was totally crushed. After the turn the HERO had less than 5% chance of winning. Not a situation you'd want to be in again and again.

at 10:53 AM, Thursday February 19, 2009 EST Yeah, JJ is a premium hand but they can get you into a lot of trouble if your not careful. Biggest problem for me is laying them down. If I could learn to fold them pre-flop in certain situations it would mark a definate improvement in my game.
Trouble with no limit is that you can spend hours trying to play solid and slowly chipping up then go and lose your whole bankroll in one minute of madness, and JJ is just the hand for that. |
