Default JJ hand

10+1

Button is horrendous even by party poker standards, he built his stack by calling all-ins with dominated hands, flush draws, underpairs that sucked out, ace high, etc. He doesn't seem to fold to any size bet once he is in a pot. Unfortunately this has limited me during the tournament since I am sitting to his right.

Would I be out of line to just open all-in here? I'm probably a bigger than 2:1 favorite against the hands he will call with and I'm obviously not worried about the blinds calling.

Default Re: JJ hand

I think the open all-in preflop would be a mistake. Raising to 300 is just fine.

I would bet about 600 on the flop, but if he really calls all kinds of crazy stuff with no real hand, I think pushing is fine.
