$16: JJ in BB facing large raise early

I hate having to push a hand like this so early. The raise seems too big to be AA or KK. What's your play here? |

I have seen this move before, and I think he has AK a lot of times here. Read?

He also pushed PF with two limpers and a raiser in front once, they folded. On another hand he pushed on the flop, got 3 to fold. |

Then I think It is an easy push. A lot of the time you are up against AK, but you often have him beat.

Given that read I'd shove even though I'd still probably just shove it anyways.

Readless I'd fold. I just shoved QQ into a raise like this the other day and villain had KK. Tilted donks don't want to be sucked out on so they raise big with AA/KK/QQ. Or it could be JJ/TT. Or AK. JJ isn't too hot against that range.
With this guy I'd push, I think his range is wider and could be AJ or some smaller pairs. |

Yeah I tend to shove over people who bet insane amounts preflop if I have something like JJ. Especially in this situation where hes being playing like a maniac.

Thanks for the responses. For anyone curious, I pushed, he called with A7o.
I love these people. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |
