Default 88 Hand M=12

$300 NL. Top 18 pay, approx. 50 players remain, avg. stack is approx. 7500. Blinds 100-200 but increasing to 100-200 25 ante in 2 minutes. Hero is in BB with 3600T. Hero has been at table for 4-5 rounds. Villain1 (4600T) has been raising many pots pre-flop and aggressive post-flop. Villain2 (7500T) has been calling a few, but not many, pre-flop raises; on recent hand, Villain2 went all-in on flop with flush draw, then hit on river. Hero has been fairly tight, aggressive.

Folded to Villain1 in CO. Villain1 raises to 600. Button folds. Villain2 calls in SB. Hero has 88 in BB.

Hero raises to 1800T (critiques welcomed), CO folds, SB calls. My thinking was a type of squeeze play (I know, that's usually with a bad hand) and define my hand. Call OOP somewhat puzzling after I re-raise raiser and caller. I was thinking SB doesn't have JJ-AA or else he doesn't just call initial raise and he has seen CO make too many raises, just like I have.

Flop comes JT6 rainbow. Villain2 goes all-in.

Questions 1-2 (#3 after results):
1) Hero?
2) What do you make of Villain2's play?

thx for all responses.
