Really am not a huge fan of pushing over the top with the JJ unless you had a good read on opponent. You just doubled no need to race there, which was best case scenario.

Default Lame.

Don't bother, finally doubled up, then got JJ vs KK. Like i said though, 2 fts in one day aint bad.

Hm. Point taken. I'll post the hand. But i cant imagine you just fold that? Seems too good to give up in that spot, plus if i double through on a race, i have a great shot to win, whereas the way i stood there, (15 bbs) im still a longshot.

Was a race really the best case scenario? Was it that unlikely that the original raiser could have been raising an underpair (77-TT)?

I would say his range from MP1 is far far more likely AQ+, KQ, or an overpair. In my opinion the only hands you are ahead of here is TT-99, and maybe AJs. He did have FE but this is still iffy for me.

not having played at any high-limit MTT FTs, i'm very surprised at the narrow range of hands you're giving to MP1 considering that the blinds & antes are so high and rapidly increasing and therefore there are several other hands (AJo & AJs, ATo & ATs, 88, and maybe 77) that I think would reasonably raise from that position.
