you should really be raising 3X (+1 per limper), so make it 120 preflop.

after your raise and 2 callers, the pot if bloated to 315 chips, the limp/pusher will do this with a reasonably wide range. i'm thinking this is pretty close...i'd fold but i can't see calling being bad.

If the shove didn't come from the EP limper, I'd at least think about calling. As played, I'd fold. Your stack will be 1,410 after folding so not much of an equity shift. You might be o.k. against villain's range but do you really want to bust out in 9th with JJ? This was a good squeeze shove by villain. Agree that larger PF raise would keep out second/third limper and better define villain's range...

FOLD. Not worth it. For what its worth, if I am villain this is exactly how I play aces and kings early on. Because people with JJ will call.

The raise is fine, you got a good hand first hand, can't assume everyone will call etc. Obviously fold to the shove; these guys are showing they are donks(impossible for everyone to get huge hands first hand) so your JJ probably won't stand in a multiway show down.
