lol dont go allin with JJ on a 9/10 seater table pre flop. Unless you're about to be blinded out or calling a much smaller stack..
Just make a standard raise and if the action gets to heavy pre-flop, then fold. Simple. Trick is with 1010 & JJ is to treat them like you would the mid pocket pairs.. People see the pictures and think it's a golden hand, like KK or something. But it just isn't, if you shove pre-flop, at best you get a coin flip against AQ/AK and at worst you're dominated by KK/AA
you REALLY want to see a flop with JJ, it's not a pre-flop allin hand, it really isn't.

Completely agree with you! +1 It's just the way i like to play JJ. I'd only add that, if you're under 10BB, all-in without any doubt.

jjj is 4- th stronger hand so its mean any A k Q can easy beat them so its the situation shows how to play if u cheep leader can push all in also if u on the low stack and soon must be all in by big blind u must push an in over sitation all in small rerise or just call bb
Agree with Shokaku. It will get you in trouble if you play it out of position ( worst going all in ); only if you are in late position, with no raise before you, can be profitable to go all in. Otherwise it's better to fold
so moral of the story is JJ fold lol
