Been a while since I played an MTT so I'm kind of out of touch. Villain was 25/12/2 after ~75 hands, seemed fishy...lots of open limping from all positions when the blinds were low, etc.

Poker Stars 2500FPP No Limit Hold'em Tournament - t50/t100 Blinds - 9 players

UTG: t2700

UTG+2: t3090
MP1: t3015
MP2: t2670
CO: t2740
BTN: t3385
SB: t3330
Hero (BB): t6765

Pre Flop: Hero is BB with J

6 folds, BTN calls t100, SB calls t50, Hero raises to t500, BTN raises to t1000, 1 fold, Hero ???

I would also shove but not really be all that happy about it. I would be 1000x happier calling a shove than reshoving on this limp-miniraise, since this looks so strong. Since you posted the hand I'm sure he had QQ+ this time, but ppl do weird **** and you never know for sure.

the limpminreraise sucks, but I see no way you can fold this hand... Moreoften he's on some AJ/88 here, seeing that this move is so weird.

Well played imo

30BB stacks, Button v Blinds, only 1 opponent involved ==> no way I'm folding JJ whether he takes some normal line or some ******ed limp-minraise line or any other preflop line.
