Fun with limping: the purest form of poker.

Just got moved to table, so no reads. My range pre is 100% of hands. I'd assume his range is capped with the check out of the SB, but I don't know if it's bottom 90 or bottom 80 or whatever.

Flop is standard I think, turn is really close. What's your preferred turn + river decisions?

Only have the partial history so I can't convert, assist from a forum wizard please?

    I saw Durrrr do it on high stakes poker for the bounty and I wanted to try it.

    Re: Fun with limping: the purest form of poker.

    Hey man,
    We know that you can/will limp here 100%, but does your opponent know that your limping range is so wide? I find it much more like that villain calls down with a Q here putting you on your actual hand, or something similar because that is the only hand he could have there?
    Would help to know if you've limped KQ, QJ, similar vs this villain before. I like the line if he's seen you show the nuts played this way a few times (even 2).

    I'm not sure which one of you reps JT better here. Is villain a trappy "HA I have NSB in the pot and I have top pair I check call all 3" type guy? Or is he a straightfroward passive always has a draw/medium strength had in this spot?
    Super hard for V to call a jam on that river w/out two pair or a straight. I assume you did?

    how are 3 people folding, I can't fault a shove here, especially without much history.
