@cobb864 You're right, pocket jacks is a hand you could easily lose a lot of money with. That's because even though it may look like a high pair, it is actually considered a medium pair since you will flop an overcard 57% of the time. (The median pocket pair for flopping an overcard.)

Both clubs, obviously.
The very next hand, I'm quite short stacked so I decided to push QQ with 9 BB's left. One idiot shoves over the top of me with K10 off and everyone folds. Flop comes JQx. Turn is a blank, but yet again the miracle ace comes on the river to save his sorry ass. These were all one after the other and I'll send someone a screenshot if they don't believe me.

I just lost 99, AA one after the other in the freeroll tournament on pokerstars.
A guy raises UTG and i re-reraise him with 99. He shoves (he was shortstacked) and I called him. I turns over 88 and the flop comes 88A.
Next, I picked up AA in the small blind and it was folded to me. I raise the big blind (I had been doing this alot and he knew I had) so this time he re-raises me. I make a small raise again and he shoves with K3 suited. I called and the flop comes Axx. One club. Turn and river?

Bro--
Don't get offended when I say the following and don't take it as me talking shit. I am merely sharing advice from one poker player from another.
If you read any poker book, or listen to pro, or play enough poker you will find out that pocket JJ is one of the trickiest hands out there.
An all in pre-flop with this hand is often not the answer. You have to think there are so many combinations that can beat you. Many A-High kickers could call, AK...ect... don't risk it all on JJ.

Word. Especially, when it sounds like the second one he told was fake as hell. You just said what I was thinking. I applaud you sir!
