Hi,

Relevant stats included, also worth mentioning that I 3-bet the open raiser 3 or 4 times, but never had to show the hand in these spots

Is TT a reasonable shove in this spot, or would you prefer a different size or a flat? Looking back at the hand, I feel I may have been too deep to shove, and possibly not in late enough position. I went for it because expected that the open raiser could have been fed up with my 3-betting and called with worse

Thanks!

I think it is OK to shove with <30bb with TT+ and AQ+.

Not a bad move for sure with big antes in play and a healthy raise sizing of MP here.
If you would 3bet to like 3k and you get a lot of action you can off course still fold and is a good alternative in a situation like this.
