Seemed like a good time for this, because he seemed like the sort of guy who wouldn’t want to fold top pair but could eventually be convinced if I kept the pressure on. Classic calling station bluff. These guys almost always reraise Aces, so I was thinking Jacks full was as strong as he could be on the turn, and the river made that safer. Unfortunately, he had quad deuces :-(. Pretty weak of him not to raise the river, though; I’d say my calling range is AA, AJ, JJ, putting him squarely ahead.
