Hero calls t200 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t300)</font>, 2 folds, 2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">BB raises all-in t6617</font>, Hero folds.

The villain is OK player, have been using his big stack to bully the table. Standard with a shorty?

why didnt u raise?

Because if SB folds, BB should and would push ATC and I have to fold.

Wouldn't that be what you would do with a weaker hand here? Not a hand like JJ which you can raise, and hope button calls all in with. Since he probably will do that with a wide range of hands here. I personally raise, if big stack still comes over the top, then we can discuss folding.

yeah im not sure he always comes after you so much that you *cant* raise jj here with your stack.
