Re: Call or Fold?
Easiest decision in the world.
Fold preflop.

All of saying is its not the best choice to limp with J4 here but its not the worse thing either.

Yes, it is the worst thing. It is far, far, far worse than calling off your whole stack on this flop.

I am merely arguing that limping in that situation with J4 (i wouldn't do it all the time) but once in a while is OK (obviously u fold to a 3X raise there)

This is TERRIBLE. No other way to say it.

The other posters argument seems to be that it is NEVER OK to play J4.

I can tell you this much... its never OK to open limp J4 on the button.
OK, OK, maybe you could convolute some scenario where the stacks are 1000 bbs deep and the BB is a monkey (not a donkey, but an actual chimpanzee) that will bet any two cards and call any bet. But in any poker game you or I have ever played in limping J4 on the button is a huge mistake.
In the long term, it really doesn't matter whether you call or fold this flop if you continue to "sometimes" open limp J4 on the button. Its a huge leak.
