Re: JJ -- too passive, or correctly cautious??
I have a tough time on jacks as well...but you said you are playing 2 guys yyou know to be loose. In that situation with that knowlege I think a 2-4x BB raise should have been made and if he checks the flop, check with him. The turn falling the way it did, I would have raised in the pot in an effort to dispel the idea that I was bluffing pre-flop with such a big raise. If he folds here you dont let him see the last card and hell likely think you have filled out your hand.
I dont think anyone can fault you for being cautious this early in the tourney though, so you lost a few bucks big deal... Its not like winning or losing this pot would have been huge for you anyhow.
