No solid reads, he recently sat. He appears to be playing pretty unremarkably however as I've noticed nothing out of the ordinary from him thus far.

Probably push. I really think he has a set though because of the raise pf/check flop then go nuts combination.

Has he raised pre-flop from any other position yet?
This almost looks like QT. JJ is only delt 1 way. Maybe TT, but I would expect a push, he seems to be getting you into a big pot.

That turn probably created a very nice second best hand for you A bit of a read should decide push/fold. Unknown at PP: push.

I would think QT would C-Bet this on the flop to take it down. I'm thinking Set or really donkey played overpair.

The pot went multi-way on the flop. If he checks he gets a free shot at a monster if the button checks behind....
Then again maybe I've giving him too much credit for post-flop skill...

Possibly, but how often does an unknown button check behind when checked to in this spot? Maybe its just me who is a sucker for a chance at the steal.
