SB posts SB 10.00, Hero posts BB 20.00

Pre Flop: (30.00) Hero has J♥ J♠

fold, fold, fold, fold, MP+2 raises to 60.00, fold, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 190.00, MP+2 raises to 580.00, Hero calls 390.00

Flop: (1170.00, 2 players) 3♠ 7♦ 8♥
Hero checks, MP+2 bets 585.00, Hero raises to 1,950.00 and is all-in

First level of the tournament, unknown villain.

I am generally not too happy with the way I played this hand, regardless of the results.

Preflop I really don't like flatting, but 3betting OOP is very uncomfortable spot to be in with JJ, if he calls and decides to float, or the flop comes ugly.

Postflop I think check/folding is a bit better than check/shoving, mainly because QQ+ is a big part of his range, and there is no way I can get a call out of AK, AQs. The only thing I am ahead of is TT, 99. I was considering a donkbet, but decided against, because it looks very suspicious.

This level of the tournament against an unknown I'll just ship preflop, why would I want postflop action at this moment? Unknows at this level will 4 bet 22, especially on boss ;)

Yeah, generally I can expect some action preflop, but this is Pokerlympics tournament and so far they have been very, very nitty both in the earlier and late stages.

you can 3bet pre (flat would be also an option oop here with jj, if you think 3b on this limit has the higher value than 3bet)
i don't know the dynamics on boss -> in a normal tournament the 4bet looks very very strong imo and i don't need to stack off here!
i fold -> but i don't know the dynamics!
