Raise less pf. Dont raise to 250 withe the BB being 50, Raise to 150 and I probally fold to a push. I also like limping with JJ being in MP but a raise is fine also. Vs a push your probally a coin flip or worse.

Raise to T175 and fold to a push (unless from a shortie).

I think I call here (you're probably not up against AA or KK since that's not an action bet); I see too many middle pairs with that play to let go with hooks.

$.02; "Damnit, I won't holla"

Had you raised 150 or so I think you could get away from it.
Now, I'm not so sure...
Very read-dependent.
The only hands you hate here are QQ, KK, & AA. And with over 500 in the pot, and 1200 to call you can't afford to fold to a coin flip.

Most likely hands are probably AK, AQ, QQ, TT, 99... KK and AA may try to milk you a little slower.

While my instinct when playing is often to lay this down, I really think this is a call in this situation.
