I still struggle a bit with JJ. (I know I shouldn't).
Did I overplay my hand even it's blind vs blind?
Should I just 2.5x 4bet and fold on 5bet?

4betting and folding to a 5bet is bad. its either call 3bet or 4bet call pre.

Blind against blind is this a cooler I think, but I would 4bet to like $1 and call a shove. No need to over shove that much. I would only 4bet/fold against a tight villain.

I thought he re-steals with a weak hand because of his small 3-bet sizing. But apparently, I fell into his trap.

Is small indeed, but stacking of JJ isn't to crazy here. Except I'm no fan of over shoving.
He can easy 3bet weaker hands like AJ+ and 99+ as well.

I think even this was happen 6max, if villain is nit, rock or just tighter players who hands will call? Only hope we with JJ the split about AK or AQs. So good to know what play villain so far. And if villain tight 3bet range most of time we have got only 50% or less.

So, it's real tough battling in the blinds too because it just looks like he is fighting back. Never the less, for perfect 6 max strategy ... we fold to his 3 bet w/ JJ and AQ .... call with QQ and AK and 4 Bet shove with KK and AA. It that case , a fold is optimum but don't ya at least want to call ?

Onward !
