Default Re: ($22) Two JJ hands, your play?

The first one is raise or fold, since it would be so difficult to play out of position. Based on your read, it sounds like you're probably either way behind, or a coin flip, so that's not promising.

The second one you could call, since you're in position, if you have a good line on how MP2 will play after the flop, assuming he would make the same raise with hands that don't beat you. I don't think it's a bad fold though. If I were MP2, the most likely hands you'd be seeing would be AQ, AK, or a high pocket pair, and if UTG didn't bet the flop (assuming he didn't fold to the raise), I'd more than likely bet the flop hit or miss, so you'd be hard pressed to play JJ, unless you hit the jack-pot set. So this doesn't like a bad fold to me either.
