| I think you are giving up too much by folding that spot. Players tend to raise much looser when they have the button and JJ is a strong hand. Even if the caller doesn't fold he will be calling with a hand which plays bad against JJ. I would have reraised that spot and I don't think it is a close decision! Roy on 27.

| I would put this simply: Be much more agressive. call, and bet flop without overcards. You ned to find some books that talk about "selective aggression". Did you ever think that in first position you could take the rock off a good hand? | ||

| I agree with Roy totally here. I reraise to make the limper pay if he decides to come and lead at the flop unless I hit a J in a flop like AJ4. If the rock doesn't get help he is probably gone. | ||
