    Ugh I hate these spots so much. Personally I would have made it 120 to go preflop but that's just picking nits. Problem is, you have no idea whether you're up against QQ+ or 77-TT or even a missed AK when they just min re-raise preflop.

    That said, I think I find it hard to lay down a strong overpair like JJ at a $11 tourney so I think I play it as you did.
