I'd normally just call and re-evaluate, or pop it up to 250. Pushing JJ here seems pretty bad.

Omg this is super bad, please keep doing it.

I mean, why not with AA or KK as you can find plenty of supermen calling with AJ or TT but JJ is too weak for that.

Thing risk / reward.

I call behind.

Absolutely no reason to push there IMO. Call or raise smaller and re-evaluate on flop. Too much risk too early. Nice river though.

I call, mostly for set value. Maybe i call one medium sized bet if the flop is all undercards, but folding this to continued aggression or overcards. mostly playing this for sets.

Call, re-evaluate on the flop. Reraising all-in isn't THAT bad if you're playing with donks who'll call with any PP or AK-A10. This usually depends on the buyin and the site.

Agreed, I'm just trying to point out that it's not the worst play in the world for the right conditions. A lot of donks love calling all-in bets preflop with junk in turbos. Like I said, depends on the stake and opponents.
