Don\'t donk into me
 

1-2 live NL game, I'm the shortstack with 150. UTG limps, couple of callers, I raise to 15 with black Jacks. Big blind calls, UTG calls, another calls so 4 to the flop with a $62 pot. Flop is 8c,5c,5s. Big blind leads for 25, UTG calls fairly quickly, other caller folds, so now its up to me with about $130 behind. What's the play and the plan?

shove

The play is to shove, the plan is to hold

O.K., seems standard, but can anyone think of another scenerio based on specific reads of the opponents. (you provide the alternate play based on a specific read).

Yeah... he flips his cards over then shows 55.

WTF? can you come up with a more generic question?

Well, the reason I posted it is yes it seems obvious to shove, which is what I did, but I did think a bit and I almost did fold (also thought about calling and reevaluate on turn). The reason I thought a bit is because UTG's call worried me. CAN ANYONE FIND A FOLD? Anyway, sure enough UTG had a 5.

you only have 75 BB's, so no I can't find a fold...reload pf.

you shouldn't be looking to fold or consider anything but getting all in. read jman's post on "gbux." an important concept is learning to play your hand versus their range, and then range v range.
