    Jacks are 10's with a pretty picture on them...

    More thinking, Less complaining...
    Jacks beat 10's. Your thinking of Blackjack maybe?

    JJ? No Way--can get beaten so many different ways. The game is about outlasting people

    It all depends on how many BB you have. If I don't have many BB left then I'm pushing every pocket pair and hands like AT+ but I see no reason to go all in with jacks early in a tournament.

    So you lost a coinflip and a 70/30 in a row? Poker is definitely rigged, this is an anomaly.

    Are you calling off all your chips with JJ or are you the one pushing? Aggressive opponents or tight?

    If I'm chip leader, heads up is only time I'll push JJ without thinking about it.

    at the pocket jacks video.

    The guy who made it doesn't seem like much of a player, though.

    Very fitting thread. Such a situation just happened in the tourney. Pre-flop - two guys go all in. My turn. I'm holding pocket Queens. I was hesitant, but I have to as well. We turn and I have Queens, they have pocket 9's and Jack's respectively. I'm in good shape.

    Flop - Queen, 9, something else. I'm in better shape
    Turn - 10
    River - King. No way.

    Jacks win with a 9-K straight. Ouch.

    You don't fold JJ + or AK in tournaments 99% of the time.

    Especially in freerolls.

    I wish I could pull the hand history of the hand that just happened. JJ vs A10

    JJ raises...a 10 reraises and then a call

    flop comes low card low card Q
    JJ pushes all in
    A 10 calls with no draw no nothing.
    River A

    I laugh.

    Here is another one:

    Goes all in with pair of kings and a flush draw. Gets called with pocket Aces. Hits a flush on the river. I cried.

    Much like the way people overplay AA after the flop alot of people do overplay JJ preflop.

    If you are going all-in at a point that its a way over bet of the pot then Odds are the best off you have with being called is a 50/50 chance.

    If the blinds are say 25/50 and you bet something like 1500, the only people that are going to call you are people that are morons or people that have big hands ( AA, KK, QQ, AK, maybe AQ)

    If you got JJ every hand shoved pre-flop the rest of your life, you'd be a millionaire.

    Remember that Poker has always been Part Skill and Part Luck
    No matter how much Skill, if bad Luck and and Cards ( you never
    know what the next 5 Cards will be ) you write it off

    It really depends on the situation.

    You have a pretty good idea of the odds you are getting before you decide to go all in and make an appropriate decision based on the position you are in. Sorry, you've copped some bad beats and played some donkeys who have called with rubbish and out flopped you. Thats poker. Play at higher limits and you won't get that as much.

    You should be all in most of the time with JJ. It's situational, but with most tournaments being fast pace it's usually hard to wait for a better hand.

    There are several thing important except cards (JJ)... position, stack size, blind size etc.

    Video is funny.

    this is sbr poker

    I seen some jerk go all in with 2-7 suited, he got called and won the pot with a flush on the river. This was low blinds too and he had 4k in in chips and doubled up.

    But yes all in with jacks is a must

    LOL at that pocket Jacks video. I usually just put out a raise preflop with pocket Jacks unless I'm short stacked or have been taking bad beats then I just push all in. It sucks getting pocket JJ's and then seeing over cards on the flop, just got to know when to fold.
