How to play pocket jacks

**Glitch** · 01-28-10, 01:41 PM

hahahaaha
push the action a little early, willing to fold....have an idea what you chased out.
chase out the riftraft and get a feel on the overpairs being ready to fold if you have to

if the flop hits low, push it hard. c'mon. funny video tho

FOLD, jacks are junk! lol

**andrewy** · 01-29-10, 02:02 AM

I usually play JJ but depends by many facts. Raise on pre flop, raise on flop, cards on flop. At the beginning is hard to fold JJ since you have a pair and you can hit trips with flop.

Grat video now i get it

In internet poker there are never any house players who have the advantage over you, that is what is so safe about playing for real money with hands like JJ.

**Glitch** · 01-29-10, 08:48 AM

unless they have an illegal advantage of their employees/sit-ins sitting there with some knowledge of peoples' cards or just that them themselves are being funnelled good cards- im sure youre gonna tell me it doesnt happen but you- like me- have no f*ckin idea

Your sarcasm meter needs tuning dawg. Absolute Poker and UB have been caught using superplayers and it would surprise me if the main 2 didn't use these as well.

If they don't use superusers then I would think they probably have software that makes sure it fits in with all the commonly used poker tracking software that the players use, but makes a higher percentage of the hands end up in favor of company bots. While playing tourneys, over the course of hundreds of tourneys I have noticed that the higher stacked players win at an alarmingly higher rate than the smaller stacks. Even when the smaller stacks are dominate. It gets worse towards the end of every tourney.

And I am up close to 6k lifetime in online poker.

I also went through a streak at one poker site where I lost 14 straight all ins (vs 1 other player) where I had at least a 60% statistical advantage going in and in 6 of the 14 hands I had at least an 80% chance going in to the all in. Do that math. Thats right its impossible. Oh, this happened immediately after I cashed out $5200 in winnings.

You'd rather have AA than JJ? Stunning.

**asianxal** · 01-31-10, 12:32 AM

Thats a great video. Last time I played Jacks I got beat out by 27 off suit...

**Carseller4** · 01-31-10, 01:01 AM

Very good video....LMAO

**royalkid7575** · 01-31-10, 05:28 PM

i would suggest never just calling JJ bb when the button or SB shoves , i think thats the complelty wrong move because you give them too many oppertunites with thier small hands like that 63 for instant if you shove you pick up 3 more bbs plus win the hand. keep it in mind

**BeatTheJerk** · 01-31-10, 05:50 PM

Regretz here's 7 points ..................... That was fuking great !!!!

J's are brutal.

**DOMINATER** · 02-01-10, 12:42 AM

LOL

**Sam Odom** · 02-01-10, 12:47 AM

Good Vid !

With JJ , raise 3x preflop. Fold if reraised

Make a continuation bet/raise after the flop regardless. Fold if raised

**icancount2one** · 02-01-10, 03:36 AM

Are most of the replies in this thread joking or serious?

It's poker. You assess the situation, figure out what your opponent might have, and make a decision. When you have an overpair on the flop and your opponent shoves, you need to figure out the chances are he would do that with top pair, on a bluff, or with QQ or better.

Of course you go on runs where you lose with JJ (or AA for that matter) 3x in a row. In the video he plays it badly, but it's easy to get caught in bad spots with hands like 99-QQ.

I think that's the idea... it's gotta be a joke.
