Default JJ against a OOP-Reraise?

PokerStars No-Limit 4/180, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed)

UTG+1 (t655)
MP1 (t2940)
MP2 (t1175)
CO (t1305)
Button (t4380)
SB (t1740)
BB (t1445)
Hero (t1520)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t90</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP2 calls t90, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to t180</font>, BB calls t150, <font color="#CC3333">Hero ??</font>

I tend to push here ... thoughts?

Why? Why let AQ/AK draw? A smaller pp would likely call me anyway - or not?

You can push which is a pretty aggro play. W/JJ, it would be best to go HU with another player, not with 3 others. If you call, MP would probably call as well and then you would need to be ahead on the flop against 3 others. You chances go down quite a bit.

Another way to play it is to raise enough in an attempt to just get one other caller. Preferable the SB in this case.
