$11: JJ early game, interesting hand

[45suited]

Don't get me wrong. JJ is a great hand. I think that there are times that I play them much stronger than a lot of players.

Say it's level 3, UTG mini-raises, gets a call, and I'm on the button with JJ. My chip stack is 1000. Insta push for me. Often when other people say, 'call and see a flop', I have no problem pushing JJ. It is a very strong hand.

I just don't agree with massively raising with it on level one just to pick up a tiny amount of chips, like the OP did in this case.
