I guess what probably makes this a shove is that even though it's 99-JJ a lot it's QQ-AA almost never.

And a lot of the time it's Ax and dominated... or even complete crap and he's trying to be pushy (which means he probably folds to your push). Any pocket except AA, KK is a coin-flip and everything else is ahead. Push em in.
