Too passive?
1/3 NL LJ has about 300, HJ 200, hero/CO exactly 500, BTN exactly150, and BB 700. This is hero’s first hand at table.

Yeah, that was mostly why I posted this. I thought maybe I should have called the river. When he checked in position on the flop and raised the turn, maybe he had a flush draw. Maybe KdJd, Kd9d, Jd9d, 9d8d, or something else with a straight and flush draw.
You have AJdd. If he shows KJdd or J9dd, call the floor.
Whatever, 3rd thing I got mixed up in this thread.
Take my input with a grain of salt. I've noticed I've become more contrarian in my posts here recently.
It's probably one of those spots which we should view as a trivial fold and not think twice about it. Hero calling is only fun when you're right, and the fun factor goes up with the ridiculousness of the situation.
I give this situation 3 out of 5 bananas on the stupid banana scale of ridiculous hands. It would be a 4 if you had no SDV and a 5 if you donk jammed. Only because I might do it, I'd give it a 2 if you back-jammed turn. It'd be a 1 if you c-bet flop but checked back turn, and a 0 if you folded pre.
[QUOTE=deuceblocker;59271285]Flop raise is not a 3! and I have odds to call.
BTN checked back flop in position and raised turn, so could maybe have a flush draw. BTN's play is odd. Maybe hit a set on the turn o slow played a set or top two pair. Probably not a draw without a pair enough for me to call river.
Not the flop, the turn
Check the flop, raise the turn is always a nutted line. You don’t have ‘enough’ odds to call. On the flop, v is stunned by his good fortune and checks. Then, decides to get value on the turn. Repeatable pattern.
If v is weak, he’s an outlier.
Just not sure I understand you finding reasons to be in there with nothing
