Title: further reason why i hate jacks.... Post by: OKPokerNet on March 04, 2007, 10:13:04 PM This happened on the very first hand of the tournament. I knew my jacks were way behind hence the fold. I kick myself for not calling now but I think I made the right move. Any thoughts???

Two all-ins after your raise told you just were you were. Good move. Leave it to online poker to give you such a strong hand, yet still be third preflop. Only three hands have you beat, and two are on the table.
Title: Re: further reason why i hate jacks.... Post by: Vorjan on March 14, 2007, 05:58:50 AM definitely a good fold here! But, with all do respect, why get so aggressive with this hand in the first place, on the FIRST hand of the tournie? I think a simple call here is just fine and a fold is definitely the right thing to do if repopped. I usually don't get too aggressive with this hand til later in the tournie, just not worth it so early in a tournie. :)
