played this hand earlier, had been playing quite well all day,then this guy comes to the table (soldier984)he was raising every hand he was in,except when raised before he could,i played him well a few times he always bet on the flop every hand he was in,i knew if i just flat called he would raise so i did this is the outcome. what do you guys think?
That's fine James, but you gotta be aware that he isn't the only opponent on the table, and if he as a one-off decides to fold, you might find yourself going to the flop with 3-4 opponents and having to just bin your JJ.
But if you're confident he will raise over a limp then it's not such a terrible thing to do. Don't worry about MuttzNuttz saying if you raise you could make him fold K3, yes that's true but you don't want him to fold K3. The number of times you're going to have the best hand and take his full stack massively outweighs the odd few times he will hit a King.

as i siad he was raising every single hand,and then betting every single flop. unless someone raised before him
Yeah I said it's fine if you're confident he'll do what you think he will, and he did do. I wasj ust saying don't worry about the fact that this time he flopped trip 3s, the majority of the time, you're gonna take a big chunk or all of his stack in this situaton.
twice today i had AA on BB it was raised to me with suited connectors and i thought i will play this slowly,56 hearts full house on flop 78 hearts flop 567 makes me sick.

can i just ask why your still calling Aces on that Flop OH that word slowly played springs out didnt believe what the other guy had and married to your single pair with that flop can only be your own mistake
The moaning about limping and slowplaying is nonsense james. If your confident that u will get rasied with jacks limp and raise...your read was perfect as he did raise and you 3bet extra knowing that his very loose and will likely to call the fact is the guy got lucky, he called a massive 3 bet with k3 and manged to hit that flop the play was fine it was just a sick flop but at least you had the reads correct.
Limped with aces i dont like as you want a big pot fro your big hands, plus aces are only good against 1/2 opponents against a multiway pot they are must a slight favourite against most peoples ranges. But again if you trust your reads and think your get raised play it the way its most likely to get you money, varing the way you play hands is good but limpin and then re raising also give away that you have a monster

i maybe worded it wrong he was raising every hand played unless raised before his turn

LIMPING WITH ACES WILL ALWAYS GET YOU IN TROUBLE
