    [FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]If there is one thing that Ive learned in my many thousands of live and internet poker hands, it is that Pocket Jacks are, in my opinion, the toughest hand to play in multi-table tournaments, especially once the antes come out. Ive tried everything from smooth calling just so see a flop to jamming all-in pre-flop, depending on position, stack and other essential tournament information. If I had a dollar for each time at a live game Ive heard someone say, I hate Pocket Jacks, Id be able to buy in a WSOP event with that. With all that being said, I keep finding myself in the money getting put out with Jacks. Sometimes I have an A, K, or Q spiked on me, other times I will run into the bigger pair. Regardless, I am thinking of starting to, in early position, late in an MTT, with an average chip stack folding JJ. Is this a good play or have I just been running into some bad luck?[/SIZE][/FONT]
