1600/800 with 200 ante

I'm in SB with 5500

Delt Q9o
Button folds, I complete blind, BB Checks.

Flop comes JT9 rainbow
I move all-in.

Is this the best route of play or should I think check/min. bet/pot bet first? I felt like I could take it down here and if not I'm not that scared of a call really, but I figured any decent player lays down just about any hand here unless they hit the straight. Is my thinking wrong?

What are the other stacks? There are a lot of non-straight hands that call you here, especially since your push is only a pot-sized bet. I don't think you want to see any of them. Your money's going into the middle with this flop, you might as well give the BB a chance to fold.

She had about twice what I did, if she called I believe her stack would have been in the 3500-4000 range left, the button was the guy with all the money, he probably had about 20K.
