    Easy fold. Way too much action ahead of you with only JJ here. I would actually fold QQ in the same situation. Now if I had KK then my chips would be in the middle. Sure it could be a medium pair and a couple of AK's but I don't see any reason to risk that many chips with a decent stack.

    Edit: Sorry misread the hand, I thought you were facing a raise, a re-raise and a re-re-raise. Disreagard what I said earlier.

    <SPAN lang=EN-AU>Still 4 to act early position raise 7xbb, this could end up a monster pot, its either a race AQ+ or QQ+ I would fold. If I had a good read that told me this guy was a LAG then I might push but we still have 4 to act. I still lean towards folding.</SPAN>
