I only know what is in the video. It is day 2, so at least a full day away from the money, so no ICM considerations yet.

My shove is meh, but motivated by factors not shown in the video. Throughout the day, there had been several hands, at least 5, maybe as many as 7, where I had raised, Jason had called, and the opponent had 3-bet. Each prior time I happened to be near the bottom of my range, and folded. As such, in this hand, I honestly believed my JJ was well ahead of his range. Add to that the fact that I had him covered, and many players are too risk averse for their entire stack, my shove is fine. When he folded, I assumed it was most likely something like AK, AQ, a few other such hands, or sometimes a smaller pair than my JJ. At no point did I think I was trying to bluff even QQ into folding, let alone KK.
