Re: Another Difficult Spot with JJ
[ QUOTE ]
I don't expect him to be flat calling big pairs that often with the short stack all in and your 5000 already in there. Seems like most of the time they'll iso pre with that much in. That makes me want to say get it in on the flop.

This seems correct, the likelihood of a bigger pair is very low. OTOH, you look very strong, you're betting the flop into 2 people with 2 all-ins, plus putting in a big chunk of your stack (which looks to Villain like you're pot-committed) and he's raising you, which you have to believe means he thinks his hand is good against everybody, which looks very much like a set. I think I'd fold.
Whether to bet the flop is close -- you're likely best against the two players still in the pot, but the presence of the 2 all-ins means your hand could already be behind, and is going to have to hold up anyway. I have no clue what the best course of action is there.
This is one of the strangest hands I've ever seen preflop.
