Topic title doesn't really tell us anything. Postflop is standard, not sure on the preflop call with the stacks as they are.

[edit - misread preflop action, thought it was limped to you, not a raise and call. Calling here looks bad, I'd either simply fold it or shove if they've been loose preflop]

Pf - Probably a fold. An UTG raise and UTG+1 call is pretty strong. I like a shove better than a call.

Flop - Super automatic and standard push. Anything else is just wrong.

I don't call raises often with J10 I like to be the one raising with it.
After the flop I would push and hope they fold.

but since players were passive before the flop, and there were a lot of limping i figured out that with the button likely to call after me i was getting a good price to flop something big.

Calling with position and JTs in a live tournament with passive play is probably better than pushing or folding here. I would be concerned that the two early position players could have big hands though.

EP RAISE & call isn't passive pf action! Also, we don't close the action with SB/BB left to act. Clear fold pf.
