Hello twoplustwo members. I'm wondering if this shuv was worth it. Button wasn't good player, he lost few big hands (this was 9th hand into a tournament, reg speed btw), his raise size was really weird and I thought he would be messing arround on tilt like that a lot with some nonsense and not good hands. Was it a good shove or I shouldn't be taking shots like that.

Hard to say. I've seen people play JJ and TT this way a lot too.

There's no nice option here but I don't much like shoving 72 BB effective into the BB who can also wake up with a hand from time to time.

Of all the options I quite like flat calling and going to the streets actually. It's more than 10% of the effective stack but we have a strong hand not an implied odds one so the normal rules shouldn't apply.
