Default Resqueeze vs. Luke Vrabel - Foxwoods 3K Mega Stack

24K in chips, blinds 300/600 with 75 ante. I've been at the table approx. 15 mins. Villian, who I learned was Luke Vrabel last night when I saw him on the WSOP broadcast, has been super aggressive and seems to know what he's doing.

Folded to me in the CO with JJ, I raise to 1500, button calls, LV in the BB thinks a while and raises to 6K, I beat him in the pot moving all in. Button calls, Luke thinks forever and says he has QQ and that I moved in so fast I must have AA or KK, and folds his hand face down. When I turned up my hand he looked super pissed, so he actually may have folded QQ.

This is the second time in the last month I've instashoved over a squeeze with JJ (the first was when I was UTG, guy folded KK faceup in the SB at the end of Day 1 of the ME). Anyway it got me thinking, am I giving people ranges which are too wide when they are squeezing? Has the squeeze become such a well-known play that people are only squeezing with strong hands now? Bonus points for guessing the hand of the button who called my all in.

Seeing as this is live poker the squeeze isn't THAT well known.

Online i almost never squeeze anymore since the play is EVERYWHERE.

Seeing as how you raised from CO and reraiser is LAG, seems like you have to push JJ. Unless villain is a nit, you are not in bad shape versus his range.
