"Bubble" hand - $540 daily Bellagio

[JohnnyF]

Six players left, five make the money. Hero has $17,800 (about average) and the blinds are $400 - 800 w/ $75 ante. UTG folds, next player (short stack) moves in for $3700. Button and small blind have approx $35k each and are the big stacks. Hero looks down at two jacks.

What is the optimal play here?

Hero decides to make it $10k. THe thinking here is that you are now "pot committed", indicating that anyone coming in from behind needs to have a monster. Folds to the small blind, who moves in for $35k. Small blind hasn't been anything special or crazy up to this point.

Now, your play? Pot is approx $31k and you need to call $7,800. You are on the bubble.

Comments appreciated. Decision and results to come.
