1/2 10% rake hero stack 50bb villain stack 75bb
Seat 3 is going LAG berserk so hero plans to trap him.
Hero UTG JsJd calls 2$
Fold

LAG folds
New to table raises to 10$
Fold
Small blind, tight 50 y-o, raises to 35$
He feels uncallable everytime he infrequently raise an open. This time is no different. This feels uncallable, and unraisable. Feels like thereÂ’s no fe in a limp shove, and that I will be shown an insane pair that is not aces. I donÂ’t think JJ is a trap anymore. He raise to 35$. I guess my best option is to limp fold? What the hell is my vpip if I limp folds jacks? Not gonna wait all day for QQ+ and call it playing poker?

Thats what happens when you start to inventing "creative" lines. You have no clue what your range looks like.
In this case, imo, its whatever. get your 50bb in with your JJ. Wont make much of a difference.

Folding here os fine. You probably saved yourself some money.
If you're going to trap from EP, find a stronger hand, one that can 3B or 4B, or at least call a 3B.
