Need help with the JJs

[reallybigshoe]

I've been reading HOHE, trying to pick incorporate it into my play. After the first limper comes in, is my best scenario with the JJ to push instead of making a typical 3BB raise. It didn't seem in retrospect big enough to isolate me with the limper; the Big Blind who had me well covered was getting 2.5 to 1 to call. The other option of a bigger raise (say 5BB) would cost me half my stack and pot commit me after the flop given how crippled I would be at this stage of the tourney.
So, a push here? A limp call? Or was the play okay?

With a limper, I'll generally raise to 4BB instead of 3BB. That said, since you only have 10BB to start, just push. You'll pick up 2.5BB, which is 25% of your stack. Not too shabby. Either that, or double up, which is nice too.
