Default call down with JJ after flop?

Should I call down here? Both villain's are quite tight so I suspect they have pocket pairs or overcards but this is TT+ and KQ+

Wouldn't they cap preflop if they had QQ-AA?

I don't know that I'd auto-calldown, but I'd call the flop and maybe check/fold the turn... especially if it's 2 back to me.

You might get better responses if you had ended the action with your choice on the flop.

I think you're being results-oriented. It was a good fold.

I call the flop.

I think it's at least reasonably likely that AA-QQ would have capped pre-flop. So even though they are possible, they aren't as likely as when you face a pre-flop cap. I could see TT (or another middle pair) playing that flop this way. I could also see a nut flush draw playing it this way. I'd call down unless another scare card came up.

The only thing I'm thinking when I see this action on the flop is that I wouldn't expect anyone here to have a 9. A 9 would wait for the turn to raise, especially with the pre-flop action.

The c/r by MP2 could be a flush-draw, and button probably has the overpair. Basically they haven't convinced me yet that they have hands better than mine.

The turn w/MP2 could be AJ of clubs, so now he made his top-pair and can bet out again, he's got great equity.

I'm getting to the point where I really don't trust flop action very much.
