Do you have any stats on villian? The play seems fine. The villian is pretty much broadcasting his hand on the flop which gives you an easy decision. And I think that with calling a 3-bet preflop with JJ you're pretty much trying to hit an overpair or a set. And you didn't so I think folding is fine.

Typical short stack madness :P

i might call this, because you haven't shown significant strength yet, and the bet smells of scared more than it does value.

AA-QQ are possible, but you might see AK,77-99 just as often.

I agree it is very difficult without any reads yet, but based on general shrotstack behaviour at this level, i might call it quite often.

You got a backdoor straight/flush as well [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I might call, I rarely see villains bet like that with hands that beat you
