Think the preflop raise here is spewage.

I agree and here is why. The tight players are not folding their solid holdings to this raise. The loose players who decided they are playing and calling the raise. I think this is why it is just not good to get that financially involved with a hand this early. All the overcards are forcing you to slowdown and you don't want to c/c down 500 or more to find out you are second best to someone playing any two suited or any ace that hits an overcard.

At these levels I pretty much play JJ and down for set value until level 3 or possibly 4 depending on the table. This is directly from a post on beating the $10 SNGs and works quite well.
