Default Stars $530 Second Chance hand

Villain is a little LAGish. I'm fairly certain that if villain had KK/AA here i don't see a reraise of this size, though KK sometimes would.

I think a lot of his range is TT/JJ/QQ/AK. Thought's here?

Poker Stars
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t200/t400
9 players

Stack sizes:
UTG: t22550

MP2: t20570
MP3: t49103

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is UTG+1 with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

I think this raise is normally sized and well within the range of reasonable, it's between 4-5x the initial raise with 1 caller in between.

Other than that, this hand is identical to the hand posted by FGators, where most people said "zzzzzzz shove" and I and 1 or 2 others wanted to fold.

Fgators was easier because he flatcalled in LP so both pure-air squeezes were more likely, and he beat more "value-squeezes" but I still get it in here.

eh, I fold this. I think villain is more likely to have AA/KK than JJ/TT .

edit: I didn't realize that you weren't the intial raiser. I would normally 3-bet this right out of the gate and then fold to a 4-bet all-in with these stacks.

Flat calling is way better than 3-bet folding to a shove. 3-bet and fold to a shove with a suited connector or some other air if you want to add some bluffs to balance your utg+1 3 betting range. If I were to 3-bet jacks here it would be with the intention of instacalling a shove from UTG.
