I stopped reading at "Hero raises to t80"

Ok I deserved that.

I shouldn't have been messing around with Jacks.
My reasoning (flawed as it might've been...) was to try to get a bit more money in the pot then see what the flop brings....

So... what would you have suggested... 160? 200?

I'm thinking 200-260. Do you really want to play JJ in a five way pot?

As played I wouldn't fold, getting 3:1 or whatever. Are there enough tards this early that go broke with 88-TT in this spot for it to be breakeven? But I expect to see the 7 here often.

I know I'm calling in the BB with 57,67,78,79,even maybe T7 looking for a 5 way pot.

I've been Playing Very Tight during low-blinds trying NOT to get involved in any really large risks.
(I've just finished reading "Sit-N-Go Strategy" )

I've been working on putting players on Ranges....with some success... sometimes.... (when I remember to do it....)

but .... for whatever reason, My play seems to be Really Muddled as of late. (my life too -imagine that)

Anyway Thanks for the Input.
