Play pocket JJ like this.

never forget that JJ is just another starting hand.

Well, I don't know because he plays with JJ doesn't give me confidence because JJ can be played in different ways and how do you want he loses a lot playing all-in on the flop and I don't think you have to play that way, you'll lose a lot if a person makes a set or two pairs so you need to think about how to play correctly

That was hilarious...and I'm assuming that it was meant to be. He is a very entertaining guy.

I think it was meant to be funny. I know my wife has gotten a lot of laughs with it a the casino. Especially when she shows it to someone who just got beat with JJ.

Just dont overplay them except against dummies. Vary how you play them by opponent and by position.

i miss those full tilt tables

First to understand.
JJ is the 4th best hand and is among the 6 or 7 premiums.
I think that of the hands you put in the video there are some that are quite poorly played, for example the allin payment against AA after a player's role in Button.
Afterwards the rest of the hands are normal. With JJ against A3s you have a good chance of winning, but hey, anyone can have a badbeat.
The only 2 pairs in hands that are played differently are AA especially and KK.
In many hands with JJ you come across a closed straight or a set and make a very strong hand.

I've won with JJ and I've also lost, I believe I've won more than I've lost, but the face is amazing

Man - i have never laughed so much. Great post/thread.

For me, JJ is a classic ego-trap hand. Strong enough that you don’t want to fold it, but not strong enough to blindly play for stacks. What helped me most was not getting married to it: position, opponent type, and board texture matter a lot. If overcards hit and I face real resistance, I’m fine with letting it go. In the long run, that saves more bankroll than forcing a win with pocket jacks.

Played a JJ hand yesterday, flop came JKK, went all in, was called by KJ. what a sad bad beat that was...

20+ year player and JJ is one my hated hands to see and have to play. OP was luckier then me in that hand I usually get to look at 2 flopped face cards higher then a J almost every time I have JJ. I'd honestly rather have and play low suited connectors over having to play JJ. Suited connectors are easy to play post flop compared to JJ.

Cheers!!!

As my nurse mother would say, "Feces Occurs"

I think all pocket pairs should be set mined and folded, or gone all in with preflop.
They are just so vulnerable to being cracked... QQ-22 should all be played the same
