i like delaying action until the turn. with this turn card though, i would probably just c/c down after calling flop.

Tough to say if standard.

Equilab has 74s as a top 61% of hands. Do you want to be defending 61% against a hijack open.

On the flop what are you x/c'ing. Do you x/r all pairs? mid pair+?

We're getting 7:1 to overtake a pair of jacks and will be able to CR if we do. There's also a couple draws for him to be bluffing.

Reraising on flop with middle pair after a preflop raise???

I think you played this hand very wrong.

Probably calling till the river would be the best decision.

I hate to be that nit but I kinda like folding preflop here. As played nice hand I don't like a call down because your hand if good otf requires protection

Raising middle pair on this board is totally fine. Especially online where the standard LAGTAGy player is like auto-showing down AT here.

I would call the turn and re-evalute on the river. It looks like a good card to semi-bluff for the villain.

I would say the fold is standard if you c/r the flop (not a good semi bluffing card imo).

I would just c/c down from the flop. I feel like c/r and betting for value the whole way will be problematic on too many runouts. Even with the relatively good turn for us, we are bet-folding some equity. On a brick river it looks like we need him to call all combos of AK/AQ/AT/A9 and busted nfd in order to get 50% vs calling range. All in all it seems a tad thin, but I could be convinced otherwise.

Not that it matters but I might fold pre as well.

I'm torn about preflop, so it's probably borderline and not a big deal either way.

Flop is seriously dry, and I would consider just calling, with most if not all of our continuing range.
