Default JJ in SB vs two big stacks

FT $24 $14,000 guaranteed we are down to 180ish from 600approx I think. Hero recently lost a decent pot to set over set. Biggest stack has been active, recently tried a steal from SB then called reraise with 94 and bet out on flop of AT4 and showed. Other is relatively tight.

Blinds are 300/600 with 50 ante

full table with most having 8,000 average

Hero 6500
UTG+1 45,000
Mid 19,000


Hero is SB Jh Jc

UTG+1 raises to 2,200
Mid calls 2,200

Hero pushes all in?

Is this a straightforward play based on my M. I have no choice? DO you prefer a stop and go versus only one player and is the "squeeze" type move here a much stronger line?
Or is a fold considerable here? Early big stack raise gets called by second biggest stack must show reasonable strength and I have little hope of geting a fold with a push based on pot size and their stack sizes. A stop and go doesnt seem to fit here either so :

Option A close eyes and push
Option B fold
Option C stop n go

This isn't worded well but I would like some thoughts as I am thinking folding may be an option now but that may be result oriented.

Thanks

You are totally results oriented.

He had AK but didn't spike his king until the turn so you are now wondering if you should have shut him down on the flop. You are wrong. You got your money in in a ++cEV situation and you made a completely standard shove
