    i would fold this...Your prolly facing either a set or an overpair which beat yours.

    Then again, if you DO decide to play this (but please dont), push it right there. Youll be put allin on the turn anway.

    you don't like to raise JJ preflop? I mean this is much easier if u raise preflop.

    W/o reads you have to fold. Too many hands made it to the flop that makes the chances of you beat too good.
    pulling a courtiebee pŏŏl-ĭng ā kôrt-ē-bē (verb phrase):
    1. overvaluing mid pocket pairs
    2. knowing you should fold, but donkishly calling or raising anyway

    I would definately raise at least 5xbb because of the limpers, maybe even more...


    If villain limp calls and than reraises you, a set is most likely. An aggressive player would definately raise with AT to see where he stands. TP is definately the most overvalued hand in sit'n'goes, poeple go all in and broke there all the time (later it can be the right move, but not at the beginning...)
