Fnord is an unknown quantity at this point

I think you have to re-raise this pre-flop and gamb00l with the 60bb stack.

The full-buy probably has some implied odds thingy.
Who-the-hell-knows what the other shortie is up to.

I make it $12 and I won't feel too bad about playing a $120 pot on this flop with JJ.

That does seem better, thanks. If I had/used more time to focus and plan everything I'd have played this more aggressive like that. It is definitely a gamble with UTG+1 since I have no read on him, but like you wrote, I'm usually way ahead of the other 2 in the pot pre flop.

I would without a read...I mean it isn't an uber short stack, and isn't that too often a line for a monster pre flop hand?

It's either play it this way (which I thought was fine) or else re-pop it and gambool it up if he pushes. Personally JJ and even QQ to some extent I don't like the flips with 60+ BB.
