I have to disagree here. 7:1 odds on the sb I'm not folding anything. The 2 limpers beforehand make me play it even more, giving you nice implied odds should you flop a monster (unlikely i know with J3o but still possible). You know you're probably behind but you also know you're not 7/1 behind. Even if a J hits you can still take this pot down (only J9-AJ are playing this pf, AJ and KJ probably raising) or at least know where you stand quite quickly.
The sb gives you a great shot at taking down a pot when you see a low flop imo, most folk will put you on low cards and give up their overs quite easily. And in these cases being first to speak is working for you not against you.
My PO stats show a good profit from the sb, I can't see the point in folding with odds like this in an unopened pot. the risk is so small for a decent reward imo.
