$8/180 JJ to EP raise and shove over

Results 1 to 6 of 6

    Default $8/180 JJ to EP raise and shove over

    Both MP1 and MP3 were pretty TAGgy type players, I can't remember their stats but I think MP1 was something like 20/12 and MP3 19/8 or similar.

    What to do with Jacks here? Unless MP1 has a monster hand he's out of the way so I have the right price if MP3 has say TT+, AK.

    Poker Stars, $7.34 Buy-in (125/250 blinds, 25 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 8 Players

    SB: 5,552 (22.2 bb)
    Hero (BB): 7,440 (29.8 bb)
    UTG+2: 1,360 (5.4 bb)
    MP1: 7,388 (29.6 bb)
    MP2: 2,555 (10.2 bb)
    MP3: 4,825 (19.3 bb)
    CO: 2,145 (8.6 bb)
    BTN: 4,595 (18.4 bb)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J J
    UTG+2 folds, MP1 raises to 500, MP2 folds, MP3 raises to 4,800 and is all-in, 3 folds, Hero ????

    I dunno you're only 50/50 vs 99+ AQ+ and only have 250 out there. I think it's pretty damn close. MP1 will be able to play perfectly and steal a decent bit of your equity as well.

    I think a lot depends on how many are left and whether you want to just cash or go deep. It is a 50/50 call / fold in my eyes.

    I've read some article in which it was written that if you have more than 12BB, than you have to be more tight, don't throw away your chips on small cards, play only the high cards like AA,KK,QQ,JJ,AK. You have more than 12BB, so for my opinion you should make a call, but like Tom1559 said a lot depends of how many players left and how much are the prizes.
