($27) Bubble JJ hand

The Button was quite a good player, I felt he was capable of limping both good hands and bad hands here, AND I felt he was capable of limp-rring me just because of stack sizes.

Still think you've gotta push here, man. The vast majority of the time, you're ahead of both players, there are 600 chips to be won (more than 20% of your stack) just from getting folds...and even the times that you're CALLED I think you're ahead more than 50% of the time. If Button turns over QQ-AA then that's life...but I'd rather push here, have a chance at 600 chips without racing, have 80% doubling-up on lower pairs, have 55-45 on overcards, and not have to play a flop out of position that ends up containing one over to your jacks. Plus, you win 1 out of 5 of the few times that you're beaten here. Push.
