Is this a fold every time. Or is it a call when up against a loose player and a fold against a tight player.
Would like some advice because I think I'm folding this too much.

Not everytime, I'd actually call against a tight player knowing if I flop something I can probably get his stack because it's hard for TAGs to let go of JJ+, and loose players I just muck, but if you think he's stealing blind then reraise him. Also, since you have position AND heads up, it's not a bad idea to play this. Though you need reads because reads are important.

I would usually call. In this situation take notice of his stack size, the stack odds are 11-1, which is towards the low end. You have to be reasonably sure when you make a hand, you will get it all.

I love playing hands like this in position because so often you take down the pot when he c-bets the flop and then blinks on the turn.

That is what i was thinking . He has only 23$ so how many times am i gonna hit a flush draw. or two pair. And if i do hit the flush how many time will it be up against a bigger flush and i loose all my stack.

DING!

With full stacks calling, folding or re-raising are all on the table.
