6 Handed NL; JJ in the BB
This hand came up yesterday, and I'm hearing I should have folded it preflop given the stats and the play preflop, but its a 6max .02/.04 NL game, and I can't justify folding almost any pair in this spot.
Known players:
vp$ip BBvsSteal ORL RaisePreflop
Position: Stack
AF W$SD WTS hands
9 91 13 8
SB: $5.02
12.0 100 14 295
Hero: $5.49
23 50 38 20
BU: $8.45
6.0 33 21 97
0.02/0.04 No-Limit Hold'em (5 handed)
Preflop: Hero is BB with JSpade , JHeart
2 folds, BU raises to $0.16, SB raises to $0.52, Hero raises to $0.88, BU folds, SB raises to $5.02 (All-In), Hero calls $4.14.
Flop: ($10.20) 5Diamond , 4Diamond , 2Spade
Turn: ($10.20) KDiamond
River: ($10.20) 9Spade (1 players)
Final Pot: $10.20
The min raise I made was a misclick, but it doesn't matter anyway.
Basically, the stats of 9/8 over 295 hands is saying this opponent is super tight. He's made moves and is a competent player, he isn't getting his money in with nothing. Still, can I be expected to be able to fold a pair, as evil as JJ is, against anyone at this level?

and what else would I do with all my excess money?? give it to charity?
seriously, one hand, and you determine I should give up the game...nice.
You post, "I know what the right answer is, wah wah wah, I just can't do it". I think that calls for taking a serious look at why you play the game (online at least - I'm sure you have a great time running/playing in your league).
