I just don't see the value in jamming. I agree with Todd for the most part. I don't see JJ-KK playing the turn or river this way, and in my mind those are the only hands that a check/jam on the river would make sense against (now thinking about it, he may play smaller pairs like this, with the small bet to try and get you off the hand if you do have 99, JJ-KK, but even so, Id still like just a call). If he has AJ+ maybe even any A he makes the jam call based on his style. I guess my question is what hands are you making him fold with a jam, that he'd bet with on the river that you wouldn't already have beat with your 99's, making a call the better play?
