hmm you're deepstacked at the table..you'd risk 50£ (assuming he'll push on the flop) to win a maximum pot of 130..that's 2-1 your money to hit a set (or..assuming that you only really have to beat the guy who raised initially and then reraised hope an Ace or King doesn't hit the flop)

I'd fold if one of them is a tight player. If the guy who flatcalled everything pre-flop is lose or close to tilt I call here...that is the one who might be slow playing aces and sit grinning behind his PC at the moment.

the problem is that they are both shortstacked so your implied odds aren't great..you're not going to get a double-up off either one of the guys.

fold 90% of the time..if not more.

I rarely find Jacks to be any good after this kind of preflop action, and would have folded. But I'm a n00b :)

I assume you have little notes on both of them now?..and it's now clear why they were shortstacked.

Your line is right mate, most of the time you need to hit another jack here. Good solid fold.
