Blinds are only 40-80 in a deepstack.
I have 7200 chips, I have J-J and raise to 240 get 1 caller who is Big Blind. I have no notes on this player and they are down to 3.5 k in chips. flop comes 9,10,Q they push all in do you fold??? (no possible flush)
I thought I would maybe be behind but then again could have been a-9 or a-10. Even if behind I had outs. So I didn't fold lol my reasoning I had a playable stack if I lost. showed 9-10 I needed a 8 Q or J. 9 on turn. only a J for the river.....it didn't come, would anyone else fold? should have I folded to preserve chips or went to try and build?

- Donk-shoving 50-odd blinds means they're probably bad and very rarely bluffing, so you're almost always behind.
- Not much point playing a deep stack if you're going to stack off with a draw on level 3.
- You're getting terrible pot odds.
Against players who play like this, wait for a strong hand and let them give you their chips. Easy game.
I thought as much, I was hoping someone would have a reason that would make it right. I suppose the play might be a bit different in a shorter stack BH with a head on the line and still decent chips if you lose.
