So I'd really like some commentary on this hand. I can't see a fold on the flop being a good play but maybe you guys do. I'll try and walk you through my thought process. No real reads on villain.

Pre-flop: (10 players) xTyrannicalx is CO with
UTG folds, UTG+1 raises to $2, 2 folds, MP2 raises to $6, MP3 folds, xTyrannicalx raises to $15, 4 folds, MP2 calls.

The fact that he just called, in my mind, ruled out AA or KK. I figure he would've pushed or made a raise and been happy to push all his money in the middle as fast as he could.

Flop: ($32.75, 2 players)
MP2 bets $25, xTyrannicalx raises all-in $53, MP2 calls.

Soooo this flop isn't to pretty. I ruled out kk and aa and felt he was trying to take the pot down as if he had a J. I felt/hoped that considering the pre-flop play AJ and JJ were a very very long shot. So I pushed.

Good play or am I asking to get stacked?

The first thing I learned playing poker... people love any hand with a J.

I don't play at the higher limits so maybe thats not the case. I would not be surprised to see villian with a J here.

I think I call the flop and the probably call the inevitable turn all in as well. Chances are he won't call your raise on the flop unless you are beat, but he will bluff off his stack if u just call him down. If you know you are going all the way with it regardless, might as well let him bluff it off.

When the pot is raised and reraised and I hold AA, shoving it in the middle preflop seems like best play at low stakes NLHE.
