Like my 5th or 6th hand at the table. I just doubled up in the last hand, having called 3x raise from a loose MP player with a 6c7c in the SB, and c/r and then calling his shove on a 1084cc board. No read on villain. I think it's fairly obvious that i have JJ+ here but who knows with this guy. Line?

I raise more preflop.

I just call river. No draws hit. You have a showdown hand, and he's betting it for you.

I think raising the river is just turning your hand into more of a bluff.

Raise bigger pf, raise bigger flop, raise turn, call river.

Agreed in that if we raise here and want to get called enough for it to be profitable, we have to raise AK/AJ/JJ too.

barrel slightly harder on flop, raise turn for total value, insta call river, and get pwned by q10 lol

This guy is not thinking this at ALL.

He can barely remember if a flush beats a straight.

flop bet is too small as stated

that is the classic mistake of raising to an amount based on the bet by villian and not the pot size

agree

and if you call the turn why do you hesitate to call this river, it does not complete anything...

I don't think he's hesitating calling the river. He's asking us if we would raise this or just call.
