Tough spot with top two pair.

No solid reads, he recently sat. He appears to be playing pretty unremarkably however as I've noticed nothing out of the ordinary from him thus far.

Probably push. I really think he has a set though because of the raise pf/check flop then go nuts combination.

Has he raised pre-flop from any other position yet?

This almost looks like QT. JJ is only delt 1 way. Maybe TT, but I would expect a push, he seems to be getting you into a big pot.

That turn probably created a very nice second best hand for you:) A bit of a read should decide push/fold. Unknown at PP: push.

I would think QT would C-Bet this on the flop to take it down. I'm thinking Set or really donkey played overpair.

The pot went multi-way on the flop. If he checks he gets a free shot at a monster if the button checks behind....

Then again maybe I've giving him too much credit for post-flop skill...

Possibly, but how often does an unknown button check behind when checked to in this spot? Maybe its just me who is a sucker for a chance at the steal.
