Hey there! THis takes place at Fallsview 1/2 NL 100 Max. i have been at the table for well over 9 hrs and have a great read on everyone. I was up almost 4 buy ins but a procession of 2, 3, and four outers left me at just over a buy in. I am MP
UTG and UTG +1 Fold
MP1 Limps
Hero Raises to 20
HI jack calls (REALLY DRUNK RUSSIAN)
CO Button Fold
SB raises to 50
BB Goes AI for another 25 (75 total)
Back to Hero...i go into the tank, if i call and miss the flop i'm only another 30ish behind, if i jam i think i can get atleast HJ out, probably SB too (based on my read of his liking to steal pots preflop), i'm almost 100% sure BB has 77-TT or Overs. Button might have a hand like AK suited which would be ideal IMO so i jam for another 35 ontop...so 110 all in.
the other two INSTA call. (this is where i'm excited to make a huge pot, but scared)
Hands were
SB AK suited (spades)
BB AQ SUITED (diamonds)
HJ K6 SUITED (diamonds)
I have two JCJH
RESULTS IN WHITE
K T X flop
Turn Qos (gives me a back door straight draw)
river is 6
feedback plz...and Fleung witnessed this too

In my opinion, the only time it's EVER ok to open-limp playing NL cash is if you have a small pp/suited connectors and you're trying to build the pot (and now how to play well postflop) OR you are limping with a huge hand on an aggressive table, hoping to get raised.
JJ is doesn't count for either of those situations.
Raise preflop.
As played, just call all the action preflop.

he did raise pf he is MP2 not MP1
i don't think this play is very profitable with JJ. i probably cut my loses at $20. of course since you posted results maybe i'm biased.

This is the information that you should hide.
Stacking off with JJ is OK at 100BB with loose opponents.
Was raising a limper to 10bb standard in this game? It is 20% of your stack and i would prefer a raise to 10 or 12 at the most.
With the action you are facing i would muck JJ pretty quickly here and not even worry about the 12 i have put in preflop. In a multiway pot i dont like my JJ at all and i think you would need to get quite lucky to find yourself up against underpairs and overcards and then go on and get to showdown with the best hand. Of course you will see someone with QQ-AA here often anyway so even in your best case scenario of overcards + underpairs you are in trouble. I think one of the major reasons you felt commited was because you had 20% of your stack in there preflop (which was a mistake).

Hey been pretty sick and haven't been able to read this thread yet...
let me answer what i can remember.
Normally i would lay down jacks, but based on my read after being at this table for 8 or nine hours I honestly felt like i was ahead!
Open raising for 10BB was standard, this was one of the loosest most potentially profitable games I have ever played at! You could raise 7-10 BBS with aces and get multi way action.
Can't remember what else has been asked but i'm going back to bed
