Lay J8s down PF to a raise when in the SB.

Seems like a marginal call to me. Against trip 10's, you would've been about a 70-30 dog. Against the overpair, you were a very slight coinflip favourite. Against AJ, you would've been a slight coinflip dog. Unless you know this guy to be a maniac, he probably wasn't pushing all-in with less than TPTK or an overpair. You happened to be the favourite in this case, but only by a 51-49 margin. Is that worth pushing?Wait for a bigger margin to commit your stack.

I usually do. Id like to hear more about the post flop all in call tho. I knew he had Queens or higher.

Meh, I dunno how you "knew" he had an overpair, but this raise is too big for me to try and draw out. I fold this and wait for him to make the same overbetting mistake when I have more of a monster hand.Edit: Oh yeah, I also agree with Absolute that you should have folded this pre-flop to the raise though.

Would you raised that much with worse than queens

Are you kidding? At those limits some players will make that move with A-K or pocket 8's and just irrationally pray that the other player folds. Hmm...maybe I would call.
