Suits? And, I'm probably peeling one off in a pot this large.

check to UTG (pre-flop capper), and call one bet.your intent is to hit a set on the turn or pick up a draw (if you have a BD flush draw on the flop), and if not, check-fold the turn.this line might be a little passive.i posted a very similar hand entitled "am i a fish or was this okay?", where i had queens in a capped pre-flop four-way pot. the flop came ace-high, i peeled one off and picked up a flush draw, called another bet and hit a set on the river.a lot of people said i should be betting it, but i disagreed.aseem

Three-bet's a little light out of position.

This line sounds perfect to me. I think Jacks are fairing pretty lousy with this much action, but at the same time the pot is now too big to consider folding for one SB.I also think that three-betting preflop from out of position is fairly lousy. With this much action you are pretty much chip spewing if a Q, K, or Ace falls and you feel the need to make a continuation bet.

Check/call the flop, if it's one bet to you. If two-cold, get out. :wink:

also you should have just called the raise out of position instead of 3 betting, it's a multi-way pot and your out of position with only jacks, an overcard hits the flop majority of the time. Your hand only looks good when you spike a J or have an overpair, which won't happen the majority of the time.

i would agree if it would 3-bets to us in the sb to go ahead and just call instead of cap, but when it's only a raise, im 3-betting every time.

I'm with idiotbocs..which I'm sure scares him.All we have is one rasie and 2 calls (one a poster)can we not figure to have adequate equity to raise here, against at least 3 to 5 opponents?This would be a good time to teach:If we are on the Button, everyone agrees we R/R ? or not ?Heck, maybe we fold preflop, if 1 more bet is so bad..then we save 2 sb's...its' so confusing :? Only after the UTG cap are we thinking, we could be behind a bigger pair, for sure. Right? And we procedd accordingly. (this is where I stop advising) ..but just for kicks...call 1 bet on flop...and fold turn UI.

I've never played poker.
