Tourney play, early levels still. I started this hand with about...11-13k, BB was, I believe 50-100.I'm in SB w JJThere is a raise from MP, 1 call, and I'm going to put in a re-raise...until I hear the button push extra chips in. However, he messed up somehow and the dealer made it a call. With this new knowledge that the button was going to raise I decided just to call the raise myself and hope to hit a set.Flop came with one OC, a Queen. I checked, MP bet, button called, and I decided to lay it down.Button ended up winning the hand with Q9o, so at the time I made the right laydown, however...what would you do Preflop?I could have easily pushed the original raiser off, and even if he did call I wouldn't have minded. The inbetween caller before the button would have also folded I'm sure.Also, the original raiser I was not afraid of. He was very loose and ended up calling down with 2nd pair of tens. The button thing preflop messed me up. JJ is an annoying hand to play.- Jordan

As you probably know, the best thing about JJ is that you can fold the pricks and are usually correct.
