    ok let me first say i know that my push was horrible, i knew right when i did it, so save the "that push was idiotic" replies.

    how would you guys play this? relatively average table, not full of tighties but definitely not overly loose either. i always have a tough time playing JJ later in tournies, i think i overplay it quite a bit....

    i dont see any push, but anyway, in this situation with your stack size compared to the blinds it is hard to C-bet there when their is so much in there and he only has 5k, so there is 2 things you think here:

    1. do i put him allin and hope hes drawin since im getting odds?

    2. do you check fold since you're deep stacked for a stars tourny with 30BBs remaining you have alot of play left.

    i prolly c/f to a bet from him and wait for a better opportunity, if he ha AK you are screwed and if he has AQ with a you're slightly behind.
