Stacks:
UTG ($117.81) 118bb
UTG+1 ($280.35) 280bb
CO ($100.12) 100bb
BTN ($100) 100bb
Hero (SB) ($123.50) 124bb
BB ($126.88) 127bb

Pre-Flop: ($1.50, 6 players) Hero is SB J♣ J♠
UTG raises to $3, UTG+1 calls $3, 1 fold, BTN raises to $12, Hero ?

Difficult preflop spot, BU is 20/17 decent reg, doesnt 3bet loose against UTG, original raiser opens 20% from UTG and so far 0% fold to 3bet from that spot.
Really have no clue what the best play is in this spot with hands like AK/JJ/QQ

Hi.

JJ is too weak to continue here unless BU is known to be hyper aggro. You could try doing the math, my guess is that BU needs a 3b squeeze % in this exact situation, BU vs UTG+MP to be 8%+ if not this would be -EV. I think both UTG/MP ranges are still uncapped and can have AK/QQ+ so remember that you have 2 more players left to act behind you.

Thanks.
