Gotta think that he was just hoping your hand wasnt strong, like an AK to that board that you would fold to an insisting raise.

Many people dont like Jacks but in this situation with a reraise I would continue to put money into the pot because there is a great chance you either have the best hand by a little or have him dominated

dr winston:

Pre-flop:

dr winston raises to $4. 3 folds rock7731 re-raises to $6.
5 folds dr winston calls.

Would you cap the betting here?

Flop (board: ):

dr winston checks. rock7731 bets $2. dr winston
calls.

I didn't like the overcard on the flop at all.

Turn (board: ):

dr winston checks. rock7731 bets $4. dr winston
raises to $8. rock7731 re-raises to $12. dr winston
calls.

I thought I'd try to bluff him out of it thinking he could only continue in the hand if he had a Q. when he re-raised I didn't like my chances but the pot was big enough by then to see the river.

River (board: ):

dr winston checks. rock7731 bets $4. dr winston
calls.
FIGURE HIM FOR THE Tc Jc

The river didn't bring my miracle J but I still called. I wasn't happy with how I played this hand. I'll let you know what the showdown was later.
