no reads- I'm mp- I raise .75
SB reraises 1.50
flop 336 rainbow
SB leads out 6.50
I call
turn 9
SB bets 14.00
I go all-in for $14
he calls
river T
SB had JJ
So I stack him ,but I got to be honest, I felt beat but couldn't lay down.
Anyone else call or lay down if you were me?

I usually need a read with QQ. However, if I can't lay QQ, it's on a board like that.

Generally JJ doesn't reraise, so I'd figure to be beat more often than not against an unknown.

QQ is where reads are def important.KK and AKs aren't as bad but with Hilton Sisters you need to know the man to be able to make a defining laydown or push.Against a maniac I'm expecting to be destacking most of the time.Against a rock with VP$IP less than 20% I'm leaning more towards a fold.

Tough to lay down QQ at this level. When making a tough decision with a vulnerable overpair, I think you should pay attention to whether the opponent has made mistakes before this hand, as opposed to "Hey, I'm at 25NL I'm all in" Reason being that you're at 25NL, and you sound like you're aware. There are others like you. I have layed down QQ as an overpair after the flop at 25NL. It was against someone who was showing down nothing but magic.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.
