Default Re: Jacks in the BB

It is true that the UTG+1 raiser could have a wide range of hands here. He did make a bigger then normal raise which may indicate some weakness. I do not like your re-raise making it $275. I do not think I would re-raise at all from the BB, it is either call or fold, but re-raising that amount does not accomplish much. He has a mandatory call pretty much no matter what, you are out of position too. He does not have to re-raise with a bigger pair then your Jacks here either. He can slowplay and wait for you to led the flop. After he pushes all-in I would likely fold absent any read. You are either way behind, or a slight favorite in the majority of cases.
