Hey

Second hand. I also opened the first hand and won the blinds.

I 3-bet pre because i didn't believe that the tiny raise was anything more than a weak attempt to take the initiative in the hand (and JJ isn't the best hand to play multiway OOP).

Check or shove river?

thanks

I like to bet/fold as most here suggest. But to answer your question i check behind rather than shove.

yes i also think that choosing between check or shove i also prefer check but i don't understand why you consider only these two options and don't consider bet like 1/3 pot and fold if he shoves. I really think he can call small bet with worse so we get value and he veeery unlikely shove with something worse

Is your plan otf to c/c or c/f? I think b/f might be better as we keep the betting lead and don't miss value from the f draw and worse pairs looking to peel one. No one nessesarily has to have a Q here and if they do proly lose less by b/f then c/c.

guys sb has 1700 by the time we get to river, we can't b/f, I proly just x behind, dont see how we getting value from worse.
