Default A limp/reraise All In UTG can only mean one thing right?

I think this hand will bother me the rest of the tourney...

Recently moved to this table, no real reads. 370 out of 730 left in a 20+2, top 80 pay.

I folded here and it's gonna bother me for a while.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t50 (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

saw flop|<font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

UTG+1 (t805)
Hero (t4115)
MP1 (t4200)
<font color="#C00000">MP2 (t2470)</font>
MP3 (t1265)
CO (t3060)
Button (t762)
SB (t520)
BB (t2585)
<font color="#C00000">UTG (t1945)</font>

Preflop: Hero is UTG+2 with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG calls t50, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t200</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP2 calls t200, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, UTG pushes for 1895. Hero...

I've seen people attempt this with some weaker hands, like 9's, T's, or AK, but not enough to make calling with J's a profitable proposition. If UTG's stack or yours were shorter, it would be different, but you've still got 30+BB's and a player to act behind you, so I think you can comfortably fold here.

I'm new to the table, but should be tight, I think this is the first hand I've played.

Howard Lederer on his dvd recommended occasionally making this play with AK, the advantage being you would occasionally get hands that were ahead of you to fold (like JJ or QQ).

I don't think a limp re-raise only means a big pair. I've definitely seen people do this with smaller pairs and AK. Particularly after there has been a raise and a caller - they have a hand they want to play and would like to isolate.

But I still think I'd fold here.

The overbet allin looks like AK or AQ to me. There is some possibility villain limped and then decided to bluff. However, you are looking at a higher pp to often to call this.

This is my thinking also.

Wow, I'm actually surprised to see so many people say fold.
