Default Re: $11 - Folded JJ pf.

I would tend to fold this in the 5s and 10s (which I play), for a couple reasons.

First it is early, and you have only 25 in the pot.
Second, if you call 175, you are OOP and any paint on the flop will cause real problems. That is an ugly place to be, and a good reason not to call.
Third, the only option other than folding would be pushing, (a smaller raise will pot commit you) and I would definately give that some thought. Maybe push 20% of the time here if I had seen either player let go of a hand to all in pressure. Unfortunately you may not have much FE, sicne they both have twice your stack. Maybe you could squeeze initial raiser, but more likely both will come along.

So I guess I would be a pussy and let go of the hand.
