Bad Move?

[smoore]

I think you misplayed it. Welcome to the club. Jacks are a bitch.

In a typical home tournament, I want to raise enough to drive out the "Any ace" players.. I raise between 3 and 5x ... this probably warrants a 4x because you have a mid-pair and any overcard will scare you with loosies in the pot... OOP with JJ is a real PITA when overcards come. I assume the BB would have called your raise instead of reraising. Hopefully you could figure it out postflop. You had 45 BB, there's no reason to get allin preflop here.

edit: good question, btw... it's a great example of a small mistake (limping UTG) leading to a huge mistake (trying to put sort of a squeeze play on a "clueless" player)
