Default Final table hand my line with JJ

To be honest, I thought this was pretty standard, but I'm open to other options. I have no read on my opponent, because I'm a jackass and I wasn't watching the other table while I was in mine before the FT.
I just doubled up from 45k with TT the hand right before this after pushing it in from the SB, and getting called by the BBs AT. This is from the 150 on Stars that is going on now.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t6000 (8 handed) converter

I thought a push is standard this late too, it doesn't necesarilly have be a race he could have 77-TT and you have FE.

I just don't like calling then having to make a tough choice on the flop when a over hits. I think a push is fine.

Assuming you're not folding, I'd push here too. Your M is &lt;10 (although no one else at your table is really in a dominating position) Simply calling costs you approximately 1/4 of your stack and leaves you with a difficult decision if any A, K, or Q flops. Any raise short of pushing would leave you pot-committed anyway so ...

It is just a borderline here that I might lay down here and wait for a spot with better position and no raisers in front of me. He could have stolen his way to the top with the blind size, etc.

Instapush. You'll probably get him to fold AQ too.

can;t do it that way, you need his raising range, and then his push calling range. two separate parts to the EV problem. You pick up those chips uncontested a lot, which is very important.
