Any reads?

He did re-raise PF in a 6 handed game so without any reads and given the action after the flop I would put him on QQ/KK but a set of Jacks isnt impossible as well. After you betting the pot on flop and him going all-in for another 1k I dont see myself folding when getting better than 2-1 odds.

In my opinion you played this hand perfectly, but then again I am only mid-stakes player

 It's either KK or JJ (or the other two AA)... close enough that I don't think I can fold.... boy the more I look at it seems like JJ, but still.

 no way you can fold that IMO. even though I think he wants you to call, you just gotta bend over and take it if he's ahead.
i betcha that i got something you ain't got, that's called courage, it don't come from no liquor bottle, it ain't scotch

I don't think he has a set of jacks. IMO he could lay down the jacks preflop knowing that with all the aggression going on he was looking at some high PP. The fact Ilikeaces86 reraised and the guy UTG who just min raised called the reraise and the villan flat calling with his hand dont think he could make that flat call with jacks looking to hit his set he just is not getting the odds. I think he has a pair of Kings
The strong point in poker is never to lose your temper, either with those you are playing with or, more particularly, with the cards. There is no sympathy in poker. Always keep cool. If you lose your head you will lose all your chips.

Looks good. Pay the Jacks off all day. He could also have AcKc or AcQc

Pot odds tell you to call. His raise is not big enough to make you bail now. You need one of those super-strong reads like him eating a cookie or something to fold here.
