stop overvaluing your JJ,

depending on the situation i snap fold my queens pre-flop and it's probably the best play.

also i smile when some donkeys stackoff with JJ-QQ pre-flop against UTG raisers :-)
I feel like I'm in some backassward world. In your original post, you said the villain is calling with AQ... i didn't. This is what you wrote, "most of his calling hands(TT-AA, AK, AQ) hit that board"... so you're saying that he calls with worse hands preflop.

i stipulated a very optimistic view on the first post,

some people can't fold AQ pre-flop, so some people call that,

but in average, the NL10 player folds everything but AK, KK, AA, and QQ against a 3-bettor if they're OOP and raising from UTG.

sometimes they 4-bet-fold their AQ, but few people do that.

but even if AQ calls...
you're in a coin-flip against it, just pokerstove your equity against TT-AA, AQ, AK.

also you will see a lot of flops where you will have an overpair and will be almost always dominated, if not winning a little pot when villain has A high...

by 3-betting jacks against UTG raisers you only put yourself on unprofittable situations...

3-betting JJ against UTG raises is turning your hand into a bluff.

ps: everything i said here was if villain was a reg, if the UTG raiser is a fish 30/20, then 3-bet all the night your JJ for VALUE there

I never said to 3-bet JJ here, I don't like a 3-bet here. All I said is that your post was contadictory when you said that zero, none, no worse hands call and proceeded to list off a list of hands with a majority of the combos had worse hands in terms of preflop showdown value.

but hey fwiw, i like your posts because you at least explain why you make a decision. 99% of people just say what they'll do for with no apparent reason. i just think that in a lot of your posts, you express lots of contradictory ideas... just something i've noticed.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about then I can only assume English isn't your first language.

fair enough, but since your point has nothing to do with any of the arguments I can only assume that you concede all of them.

in fact, i would go so far as to say that there's not a single topic in all of poker that you have more worthwhile to say than i do. if you picked anything to do with poker and we both gave our opinions on it, i bet what i would say would be more relevant and the forum would agree.

But continue your worthless troll tour of threads i post in.

Assuming the Villain is opening aoubt 10% from UTG+1, then he's going to have to stack off a minimum of about 2% of hands to keep us from betting any two cards. This doesn't prove that raising is better than calling, but it does mean that QQ, AKs need to stacking off.
nope will need to continue with much more to make 3b with ATC unprofitable

3.33

starting to think it may be another troll account /=

I was doing stacking off ranges assuming that if the villain 3-bet, we'd 4-bet, the Villain would 5-bet, and then we'd need to call.

Our calling range of his 5-bet will be ~20% of our opening range.

OK, JJ is flat, but what kind of hands should we 3bet against UTG raise if any?
