Live 50NL -- playing JJ short stacked

[JustChillin]

I appologize in advance for the simplicity of this situation, but i need to end this arguement w/ my buddy on how to play JJ in this particular hand (i was not involved.)

reads: villian is new to our game and is seemingly some what new to poker. although he isnt playing many hands, we've already seen him open w/ weak aces preflop as well as call down big bets w/ middle pair. This hand is the first time we've seen a 3-bet from him.

we are 8 handed, blinds 25/50cent

hero is short stacked w/ $10
villian covers w/ around $35

hero opens w/ JJ from MP for $2, folds around to villian on the button who min raises, hero...?

We've already agreed that villians range is likely 10's+, AQo+, AQs+ (though i think it could be wider than this).
my friend claims that just calling is the best play, and then pushing any non A/K flop. i just dont see the logic here, on a number of different levels. i wouldnt think twice about pushing JJ in this spot, given our stack size. what does every1 else think?

thank you for any input

Either push or fold. You're short stacked and aren't going to get much better hands anytime soon...push.

The call and then push seems more suited for tournament play (freezout, that is). In the cash game the villain is probably going to feel committed since he's already put in a bunch before the flop and won't have to call much more than he's put in (and he knows he can reload if he has to). In a freezout tournament, every chip is precious and pushing the flop may make the villain fold a live hand that may not have been folded in a cash game.

However, this minraise does stink like only a monster would. A new player and he's never made a move like this.

[Quester]

If your stack was deeper I could see calling and seeing the flop. Being that short, you're committed if you call. Just get it in now. If you think his minraise range is TT+, AQo+, AQs+, then you're no worse than a coinflip.
