Definitely all-in with JJ - guess you can "give up" afterwards when plan doesn't come together

No hand is safe for an all-in. Even Aces loose sometimes. In poker you'll not get any reward without taking any risks.

When you're short in chips (<15 BBs), you can think about shocking the magic range, which refers to pocket pairs, suited Broadway's and suited aces.

Well, of course, with JJ+ premium hands, it’s easier and safer for us to go all in, but it’s more profitable to play them more often, but then everything will depend on the ICM factor and the board structure

With JJ it is good to go all-in up to 20 BB max. Because with a bigger stack you can go tribet. With pairs less than 10, then with less than 15 BB it's all-in for sure. It also depends on the villain's stack. If he has a stack similar to yours, he might hold or else the chance of a flip is huge.

everything is written above correctly, depending on what stack you have and if this happens in a tournament, then at what stage you are, in the early or late stages..
for me this hand is very bad, I lost many times with JJ, if for example J J is conditional , loses in 50% of cases, I will have this indicator 80-90%, so I do not like this hand and play it with caution, like pocket pairs

I prefer not to go all in and settle on the pre flop

What hand do you consider an “safe” all in hand?
According to my Cardschat freerolls hand histories, the best hands to go allin, especially early in the tournament, 72,65,42,J10, and etc..., these players have never heard of something in poker called Range and position.😁😜🤪🤣

I will play the JJ pretty strong, as it does win quite often, but its certainly not guaranteed!

JJ is one of those win a lot of chips or lose a lot of chip hands.

If I don't have a big hand until the turn, then I fold

If you have a medium or short stack, push all-in. If however you have a big stack you can play it cautiously.

It's not safe but JJ is always welcome... miss you already huahsuah
It's always good to be answering the table and taking a good look at the stakes. Raise 3bet is better than going all out, because you play very well post-flop and you don't run the risk of seeing Vilao's card hit the flop and lose the hand with a whopping 25bb more, and with less I don't lose the spot and put them all there.

23o is the safest All in hand.

Safe to assume you're out of the tourney a big % of the time

In poker there will never be a 100% safe hand... the pair of JJ is a hand that depending on which player I find myself against could go all-in... that is, if my opponent is a player who enters hands many times ... I take the risk and go all-in against him

Quite a few of my friends say you should go all in with JJs. Otherwise, they're harder to play, once the flop has started.
