Full stack and I think you have to think a bit harder, but given he only had 60% I think this is pretty standard given him being an unknown.

Slight problem in that he's 3-betting a possible nit UTG. Otherwise this is super standard, this guy is definitely stacking off AK so I don't how you can do anything else.

We don't want him folding any of those hands when the alternative is stacking.

you just wanna play for flips, then? I don't know much about cash games, i just thought it's best to not show cards and avoid flip situations

Min re-raise so you have the option of folding if UTG shoves. You have no reads on anyone, so not super standard. If you make a small raise, then you can shove any flop against btn if he calls, or get it in against only him since he's short.

Easy ship, super standard. That is the absolute top of your flatting range and this is a very typical squeeze spot. Even if you're expecting squeeze range to be 9s+/AJs+ this is still a ship. The alternative is folding as we should not be calling and playing OOP, and folding is pretty bad.

UTG folded. Stacking JJ for 60 BBs vs. a loose late-position squeeze is pretty standard.

u played that like u now that will a squeeze and u have AA. it's just crazy play for me, u just call the original raiser the one u should 3bet, and u 4bet all in the 3betterthe one who is showing strenght. it is a non profitable play in all cases at best u r racing against AQ or AK.

If you're properly rolled to deal with variance, you should be looking to get the money in any time you have the edge. I'll race JJ against two overs any and every day of the week. You're right to be concerned about showing cards, but I don't think it's worth passing up an obvious situation like this.
