Thanks for the responses so far. I'll be jumping around various points before getting to flop action.
1) "Fold pre." It wasn't an auto-call for me, but V2 has been playing roughly 75% of hands, I think he's unlikely to be tightening up his calling range based on opponent and/or stack size, and I have good absolute and relative position as GG mentioned.
Bonus question: If it had folded around to SB (V2) who raised to $12, would that make you more or less likely to call pre than the situation we're in now?
2) I should probably note that V1 has been varying his raise sizes anywhere from $6-13. I believe the JTo hand he raised to $10. Not sure if we can assume much about his range other than he "likes it" more than JTo.
3) If we assume that SB is calling with a 50% range (taking out the top 2% that he's likely to 3bet), we're dominated by AQ, AJ, KQ, KJ and we're dominating QT-Q5, JT-J7, not to mention the suited trash combos like Q2s or J5s. We're going to be making better 1p, 2p, better (and more) straights. I'm not willing to say that we make better flushes because there are a lot of suited Ax and Kx in that range and I'm blocking all of the Qxs and Jxs combos. So what's not to like against V2?

If V2 opened from the SB, I'm 3-betting a fair amount with Q
J given how deep we are and our skill advantage.

This is similar to another hand that has been posted recently, and I would play postflop the same way I did in that one. If V2 hadn't called, I would have check/shoved the flop as we have good FE plus good equity against a wide cbetting range with lottsa dead money compared to shortstacks. However, with V2 calling now it's much more important to worry about large stacks behind, and I would just call with none of our draws being nuttish.
