please raise this PF... would make this decision a lot easier.

as played, I shove. You do not want this going multi-way into the turn. With no reads and this being 2nl I'm assuming UTG's limping range is huge... so could really have any part of the flop (Tx,9x), a draw/combo draw pulling a squeeze if he's super aggro crazy or JJ+ who don't raise sh!t pf. You're ahead of a lot of that, so for me the goal is put him to a decision while he's behind and get the rest of those freakin' people outta the way on that board.....

it seems you're ahead of his range since he could have straight and flush draws

if he has a ten you're probably good some of the time, although T8s, T7s is kind of stretching unless he's bad

if he has JJ you're in luck... some people limp JJ for set value

indeed, you should not hesitate to push the rest of your chips in here.

This is autofold for me preflop. Sarbox, do you open JTs MP? Or just saying that "if you play it, play it for a raise?"

JTs should be an autoraise MP and esp. vs. most limpers
