Default $55s JJ with heavy raise

Raiser is a regualr at the 55's, he is a solid player from what i have seen. Seems like a reasonable fold?

PartyPoker $55 Speed Tournament, Big Blind is t40 (10 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t2000)
UTG+1 (t2000)
MP1 (t2000)
MP2 (t2000)
MP3 (t2000)
CO+1 (t2000)
CO (t2000)
Button (t2000)
SB (t2000)
BB (t2000)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

if he's solid, easy fold. either way behind or slightly ahead. probably behind too because i dont see a solid player re-raising in this spot with anything less than AK.

The usual 55 donk can have anything here from Ax to AA, but usually its just AK. Take a flop and c/r all in any flop without an A or K.

LOL, did you read the post?

He is up against a solid regular, i think this is a fold.

I don't like your raise, building a big pot OOP with a difficult hand in my eyes, like to hear your comments on it.

Raise less preflop. I do a standard 3x to 120 here. Other than that yeah it is a fold.

joker, read the reads, man!!!

calling here is pretty bad even against a donk. i wouldn't be too comfortable even calling with KK here after just having invested 1/4th my stack.

A screenname would help, but I'd typically fold.
