I'd raise it up to around $7 and call if either of them shove. Barrreto seems like he has an overpair, probably AA or KK if it is JJ that's just unlucky. No idea what saymon might have, that 50 cent bet is pretty sad so I'd count on him folding.

Yeah, barretto is repping an overpair, and the average $25NL player will stack off every time with an overpair here. The other guy is a shortstack idiot with two cards.

Raise to ~$7, call a shove, as Seany said.

Rest of the story

Thanks guys, I don't feel too bad with what I did then. I made a pre-emtive shove. Here's the entire hand, you won't believe how it ends.
