thanks for the kind words. the problem i have with raising - and this may be a dumb mental block - is that pushing JJ basically turns it into 22. sure, there will be the occasional call from TT, and 22 is drawing dead vs 99, but they're basically the same. so i feel like pushing is "wasting" my pretty good hand. so maybe the line of reasoning should have been something like: raising is better than calling, raising here is like raising 22, and i would turbo muck 22 if i got here somehow. therefore fold.
