Re: Jacks in a really tough spot.

I'm definitely up for being convinced on the 17/14 nit thing.
I think such a player's 3betting range in this situation is 99+, AJ+.
In which case, I think folding preflop is really bad right?
But I guess if you put his range as much tighter then that,
then obviously folding would be best.

For comparison, i play > 25/20 and I'd say my 3betting range here is probably AQ+, JJ+. I probably flat call AQ a lot actually now that I think about it. But I suppose a lot of players would mindlessly 3 bet 99 because "it's a good hand!" I dunno, but I'm more aware of what I'm trying to accomplish when I make certain plays, and I can't think of any good reason to 3bet 99 vs an UTG raise from somebody solid, but that's just me. And I also flat call more in position than most players which makes me more comfortable in not reraising them.
