PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (8 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

BB (t1690)

UTG+1 (t1290)
MP1 (t1350)
Hero (t2680)
CO (t1455)
Button (t1450)
SB (t1670)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
3 folds, Hero raises to t80, CO calls t80, 1 fold, SB raises to t200, 1 fold, Hero folds, CO calls t120.

Flop: (t500) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB bets t220, CO folds.

Final Pot: t500

No reads on opponent, i thought with one active player behind me after the reraise it would be dangerous to call and i would be in big trouble if undercards came and i was up against an overpair.

If you're going to fold to a re-raise, then why not limp so you can simply call a smaller re-raise to see a cheaper flop ??? At these blinds, and this buy in, I'm limping with JJ to see a safe flop, first ...

At these blinds, and this buy in, I'm raising with JJ, maybe even overbetting, because most of the people who play $1 tournaments do not plan on folding very much

"If you're going to fold to a re-raise, then why not limp"

That's such bad logic.

Yeah i got confused as well, it's like raising queens UTG and saying you wouldn't fold to reraise, a call and then another reraise.

What do you think about the jacks then wiggs?

at a $1 sng early on I am never folding an overpair.
