Nitty Fold? Nitty Fold?

1/2 NL, I'm the new guy at the table. There are some deeper stacks, and I have position on all of them but one. After one orbit we are dealt JJ in the cutoff.

UTG+1($400) limp, MP limp($500), Hero ($300) raises to $15, SB ($300) calls, UTG+1 calls, MP calls.

Flop ($60) T64

Checks to Hero, who bets $35. Board is very dry so I didn't feel the need to go larger. I want to give hands like 89, 9T, etc. the opportunity to make a bad call, and also might get looked up by 77-99.

SB raises to $110, leaving her with $175 behind. Folds to Hero. Hero?

SB is a 60 year old woman. I have no reads on her and have not played with her previously.

Turbo muck. You cant continue with no reads.

PS..I looked for you yesterday. Never saw you.

Just fold until you have more info on her. (Try to get her to show!)

I don't have the most live experience but so far the following has held true: anyone over 60 only ever raises with the effective nuts.

We also have the lowest overpair we could have on this board. Looks like a fold. I think you played it well. Maybe we could bet flop larger depending on player reads but I don't hate that sizing on this board either.

Fold without reads. Most likely a set, or bizarre overpair or two pair.

I'd suspect a bluff if she was the last to act. The fact that there are two players between you and her means she's mostly raising for value.

Anyone between 20-35 is the best candidate to value-bet against. They always give action with the "second best" They win small pots but lose the big pots battles.
