Default 3r, JTs, relatively SS in hijack

Several of the books I've read say I should do this because I am short-stacked relative to the blinds and antes. I was just moved to this table, so no reads. What do you guys think?

ante is 600, so pot is 13,800


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t6000 (8 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG+1 (t130461)
MP1 (t272500)
Hero (t75785)
CO (t158500)
Button (t157214)
SB (t81131)
BB (t159359)
UTG (t136082)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

You aren't quite desparate yet. I understand the push but I probably wait for a better spot.

Hard to let this go. Factor in your image and table considerations may sway to a fold; in a vacuum, push is OK. I've grown accostomed to letting go of 109, J10, QJ with 5 people to act and an M of about 6. With 4 people, it's closer.

Are we pushing JJ+ here also, or making a standard raise?
