Sabr - why not post this stuff in the strat forum - or start a PBG thread. I realize this chat thread is nominally in that forum but in reality no one here cares.

I'm not looking to discuss strat.

It's low content stuff.

I'm going to have to borrow 7 figures to be able to buy even an entry level house where I currently live. And I need to live here both because I don't want to unsettle my kids during high school but also all my friends are here and also my parents, who retired here from the UK 10 years ago. So I need to find another 4 bed home here
Talk about a perfect storm of suckiness.

There's a forum associated with chat thread?

Anyway you don't speak for everyone here. I like the boring_ass_hand_histories when they tell a story. I agree that chat thread is not where to debate how to play JJ.

i am negative 150 BBs per session for the last sessions :/

highlights: straddle UTG, i got KK, some calls of the straddle I raise big, straddle calls. Of note: Straddle was wearing sunglasses at a low stakes game so you know they're bad, passive, etc etc. I forget but I had just under 300 BBs roughly, straddle had me covered. Board: K KdJc8c - i lead 75% pot cuz its 3 way and this board sucks and i'll get called by a buncha crap. Straddle calls, turn 5 spade, I pot turn. We were deep I forget exactly how much. River T club **** me. I bet, straddle raises 300 on top I make a hero fold which i hate doing but dudes wearing sunglasses who tank for every decision for 2 minutes dont have the guts to bluff. also opponent was very passive (hardly raising, calling raises and cold calling 3bets - matter of time before they go broke or get better).

4 handed, as soon as me and villain sat 4 people were picking up. 60-75BBs effective J8hh on the BU i make it 12, vilain in SB calls, BB folds. Flop JJ6dd - v ch i 75% calls, turn 8x v checks I shove, v tank calls river brick i show my hand quickly V tanks and turns over KJ :/

I have 55 on CO - 2 limps, HJ raises to 15 i make it 50, BU is a poker dealer so you know this'll be good ****. ~75BB effective roughly. HU to flop
($135ish) 5s6d9d
i check, villain leads 35, i check raise to 135 (I thought i was putting them all in but they had liek another 25 on top or something ) villain tanks then shoves for some small amount more i insta call. turn diamond of something river brick Villain flips 58dd for the "straight flush draw"

The cold calling of 3bets with these ranges has me all twisted up. Also nobody 4bets at 1/3 so if anybody has posts about genpop 4bet ranges its KK+/AK I have to assume.

No sir, open to 15x so they all fold and then say “I hate jacks” as you drag in 3bb.
