Funny....I fold jacks there but then 10 hands later I make this call. I had been a little aggressive in my short time at the table. I was getting decent hands but not great ones. Unfortunately anytime I tried to do something with them, I'd get re-raised out. I finally decided to take a stand.

With the Jacks, I usually take the flop here and get it all in with an overpair. The raise is scary on purpose. He wants someone to shove so he can see 5 cards. You wanna cut the hand in half here. When I fold, it's usually just to avoid big pots on the call which is best tournament strategy.
