The flop came 973 rainbow, and he checked. I led out with a bet of 400, and he min-raised me. After some deliberation, I pushed the rest of my stack, and he called, showing his KK.

Needless to say, I didn't hit my J, and I was done almost as soon as I started. I was very disappointed with the result, but with him limping, I was never putting him on KK. I thought maybe A9 or something and he had flopped top pair.

If I had the chance, I would play the hand the same way - just ran into a better hand, played weakly.

That sucks, dude. You played that wel,, just got unlucky to come up against a higher over pair, but that's why I don't like jacks, because they are not as good as a lot of people think. Still, with an over pocket pair, you have to push.

Good job, though.
