34/24/11 over 29 hands.... I don't think there is any chance he has overpair or 2 pair.. only possible hand that beats me is a set. I think A8 or a flush draw is much more likely.
My first instinct was to call, but I thought about it, and I don't want to play this hand OOP on the turn, and if I think I'm ahead on the flop, I should go with my read and push... so I did. (Villain has ~70 behind when I push)

You play the same?

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.50/$1
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
Hero: $143.35
CO: $40.25
Button: $98.90
SB: $44.25
BB: $100.40

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is UTG with J J
Hero raises to $3.5, CO calls, Button calls, 2 folds.

Flop: 8 3 2 ($12, 3 players)
Hero bets $8, CO folds, Button raises to $24, Hero raises all-in $139.85

Thats why you didnt get many responses harry ;] If your reads are right, you're right, and we cant tell you you're wrong.
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

 I think there is way too much information that you can gain on the turn to not call and c/r most turns.

tough spot...by raising a wide range there a decent villain gets to play almost perfectly no matter what you do.
I think what you did is alright, and can't really think of a much better way to play.
calling and evaluationg, potentially check/folding the best hand or letting villain catch up too much, or lead/folding the turn basically with only a psb left in stacks doesn't seem much better than this.

elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
 The only problem I have is that he will only call an allin with better hands than he'll push with.
