Very rarely would I fold that. In most, it is a hand I'm raising on.:flute:

Depends on situation on the table. Recently i've started to fold many pairs preflop on MTTs, even JJ or QQ if there are people betting before my turn. A or K is the worst thing to see on flop when you have ONLY JJ. IMO it's too low pair when other people are betting with probably some A, K or Q in hand.

I don’t remember when I threw a pair of jacks. Most often it is 3.4 bet. According to the situation, maybe all in. if there was a call preflop, I can throw it out after a tight raise, if QKA is on the board

In specifics conditions, professionals players say that you should fold QQ. So you can "easy" fold JJ if the circumnstances shout you to fold this hand!

JJ ?

Good morning everyone.
I played a $ 2.20 deep stack Mtt, in 2 similar situations I played JJ, with 3 players in all in the pre flop, one had a villain with AA and the other had a KK. Thanks to my reading of folding JJ, I finished in 15th place, with 2204 players fild, if I'm not mistaken in the 2 times, I had around 25bb.
Against 2 or 3 players in All in pre flop on a regular Mtt, JJ is a weak hand, in my opinion.
Depending on Mtt, against 3 players in All in pre flop, I fold until QQ.
AA and KK, it's call.

Depends on the situation, there are instances where the correct play is to fold aces preflop, so of course it applies to cards weaker than that.

I ended up folding twice for the aggressiveness of the opponent



sometimes its good to fold Even AK preflop its all about the position and chip count and how well you know the people around your table

it all depends on what your stack was at the moment. at the beginning of the tournament you can't go c JJ all in

Yes, I can throw JJ, most of the time at the beginning of the tournament and on the bubble.For me, it's a hand that I play slowly.It gives visible strength, but can be easily broken.Call me-that's how I usually play.2-3 BB on the button.

What's wrong with that?? Depending on the situation and the tournament position, you can also reset the AK, not like JJ. There is so much more powerful combinations? so do not worry, it is not a shame to reset the preflop, especially the average pair

For me, it depends on the tournament I play in and the number of chips . I myself was upset many times when I dropped the winning hand because of the aggressive play of the opponent

a lot depends on the tournament, also if people are ready to close the bounty tournament for an additional prize with a wide range

Normal is relative really. If all you are playing are satellites to larger tournaments, and you're on the bubble and have Jacks, folding would be the correct play, especially if you are in a comfortable position to win the prize. Heck, even folding Aces pre-flop would be the correct play here if you're on the bubble. I've done it before, and won't hesitate to do it again, especially if there's nothing to be gained risking your chips.

JJ is a good hand to play it. just like QQ the eternal loser in Allin Preflop. JJ I personally the Fold if after raising come big Reraise of at least two opponents. before an opponent you could pay a high bet and even an Allin depending on the information you obviously have about the opponent.

Yes

Yes, I have folded jacks preflop a lot in my poker playing. I don't like to call all-ins with jacks unless I am really short stacked.

As the previous speakers have already written, the complaints are different, but when a tight player plays aggressively, it is better to reset JJ.
