($11) JJ spew?

[falcone falcone]

Second hand of an $11 donkament..no reads on anyone. I'm only really afraid of the OR here I think (maybe the UTG limper, but unlikely). Is this mega-spew, standard or an expert play? With the two players to act behind me, is calling and trying to take a flop better? Am I overvaluing my hand?

Don't raise allin here. If you get called, which you probably will with this many people in, you're likely a slight favorite or way behind. Call since you getting the pot odds to hit trips. If the jack doesn't come, you should get away from this hand.

This hand has overpair value too, especially at an $11.

It definitely does. With that many people in though play can get tricky. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Sure, and I also know that getting that large of a chip lead that early isn't as great as one might think considering the chances of going broke here. tight play is recommend early for a reason. If he had QQ+ this would be an easy push. JJ is boarderline and I like the conservative approach here.

he wont raise kings and aces that high utg. maybe queens, more likely jacks or tens or some weaker aces.
easy push with all the dead money.

I'm actually less concerned with the original raiser than I am with MP2.

This is fine if you are closing the action, you may not get to see a flop here, and after you call here you are giving odds to UTG and UTG+1 to call behind with ATC which may crack your set if you hit it.

I think shoving here and taking a flip with this overlay is better.

I havent read thw 1131242341 replies, but with the overlay this is a shove. JJ+ AK I'd say. So much overlay
