I'm probably calling this down. I think you're good more than 1:10.

I agree.

Playing JJ and QQ is hard when they cap it PF or on the Flop.

To call this down, hero has to put in 3BB to win an 18.75BB pot. He would have to win this more than 1 in 6 times, not to mention the amazing amount of uncertainty that hero makes it to showdown in 3 BB. During a hand, we're not always so lucky as to see UTG check-call the turn and river.

Anyway, I'd need reads to fold this.

I wish I had them. That's what I get for playing 4 tables and posting on 2+2 at the same time.

Perhaps 2 more BBs woulda given you more info. Calling the flop and betting the turn with the intention of folding to a raise seems like a good play.

Turns out MP3 had pocket 2s. Wonderful.
