JJ, all in or give up?

I'm going all in with JJ pre flop only my opponent it has less chips then me. But it's like gambling!
 
For me, the hand is bad and very well beaten by the opponent. Here you need to proceed from the situation of what kind of stacks you have where you play. In a tournament, if it's an early stage of one thing or a late stage if you have a small stack, then it's completely different. This is a couple of cards just out of desperation, I'm not particularly lucky with it.
 
There are many factors at play here! If you are in the bubble, then jacks are not the best hand to go all-in. At the same time, if you are in the money and you have a stack of less than 15bb, then there is no option to go all-in. Even if everyone is thrown off, then for you it will be a plus action in any case😎
 
It depends on the size of my chips, position and if there is still a long way to go to reach the prize!
I wouldn't go all in pre flop
 
It all depends on the situation at hand. Even in the pocket of the picture card, please take various things into consideration and judge.
 
It's not that simple in, it depends on the stack, on the positions, on what has happened before, but in general JJ is good most of the time, isn't it? We had a few bad times, but that's part of it.
 
if you decide to go to All-in or not, of course it's better to go with a good hand with JJ's hand to get money and increase the number of chips, the chances are great

I kinda like JJ, of course you loose often with it, but it is also a a tough hand to play even if it might be slightly more profitable.
 
depends on the game and on the bank and on the position. But I would risk going all in. There are no cards in poker that guarantee 100% winnings.
 
JJ all-in is perfectly conceivable in most cases, but there may be an option where I fold. For example, in a satellite tournament, I have the second highest chip stack at the table and most of the chips have gone all-in before me and we're on the bubble waiting for an elimination. I think all-in is completely pointless here, but maybe that's just me.
 
I like JJ's hand. It does not lead to stack loss. But when KK is confronted with AA, it is actually a verdict. You pray that the opponent has QQ, but will show AA at the showdown.

You need to go ALL in with JJ more than fold them. It's not 100% but 70% you need to go, the rest you can mix watching all other variables.. remember the fact you need win some flips for win money, is part of poker get some risks
 
There is no safe hand in poker to go all in with. Also depending on the situation, a hand that's perfect to shove or 3 bet with is an instant fold in other situations. Take pocket 3's. 10BB on the button I can jam all in and be happy. 250bb Deep and someone jams it's a insta fold. same 250BB and someone open jams and we have aces, we call but are not thrilled about the spot. Yes we are in good or at worst a chop situation but that's not poker and we hate being knocked out when unlucky so deep.
 
All in, risky hand to have in my opinion. Not high enough to see the flop
 
it's a very tricky hand. Never going all in with JJ and often have a lot of fun with tilt of other players after lose JJ hand
 
JJ can be all in if no one has raised before you, but it would be good to know what position we are in, which stage of the tournament we are in.
If not necessary to go all in preflop, you try to check the flop. If an A or K comes, you can easier fold if you would like to win something (if this is a tourney).
 
there is no safe all in preflop. now after the flop is a different story, anything better than a pair is usually pretty safe.
 
Poker is a game of situations and context. It's wrong for me to say exactly what I would do with JJ. In some cases I fold, in others I shove, or I just play aggressively. In poker, it all depends on the context.
 
It's too strong to play passively, so you often have to call at least one street. But at the same time, she loses to a range of premium hands. And there will often be overcards on the flop, which will present you with difficult decisions. This, of course, does not mean that you should fold jacks preflop, although it is often joked about in the poker community. You just need to know how to play this hand correctly in different situations.
 
It depends a lot on the situation of the game, but big pairs, AK, AQ, KQ are good for all-in
 
According to my observations, very often when you get JJ or other pairs, your opponent also has a pair, for example QQ . When I go to the bank, I pray that my opponents don't have a stronger pair.🙏

for me is AA, and only if there is one player in the play, I already lost several times with AA when there were more than two players involved in the action, that's because the variance will always favor someone when two or more have pairs.
