JJ early in a 10+1

OK. I played jacks as though they were aces. I'd just like to submit this as evidence that 10+1 players play all sorts of garbage way worse than JJ like it's the nuts, which is how I justify a little extra faith in them myself.

Honestly I think it's probably okay to play like this, I wouldnt be shocked if the cold caller had something like 77. They play so bad sometimes!!

Well if UTG had anything really good he woulda re-raised, and the guy all-in looked pretty weak, I think you made the right move, sometimes I'll fold this though, I don't like gambling early on.
