Default Stars 5.50 1 table 4 left...

None of these players are overly tight or loose. What I'm wondering is if I should get further involved here after the flop when I know I'm in the lead, or fold because the short stack is rather short and SHOULD be going out soon. Also, my raise is basically the same as a call in this situation.

Results are not listed since they're meaningless.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) internettexasholdem.com

SB (t7610)
Hero (t2465)
UTG (t2645)
Button (t780)

Preflop: Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

Flop: (t1200) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

I think this is fine. This kind of overbet is rarely ahead of JJ on that flop IMO. Looks like the big stack throwing his weight around on the bubble.

Im not a big fan of shoving with too many blinds but in this situation im tempted to do that. I don't want to play a flop here im happy to take it down.

What hands do you raise to 4xbb PF and which do you push? Where is the cutoff? TT, 99 or 88?
