What about raising to $400? If SB comes over the top and BB calls you insta-call. If SB comes over the top and BB folds, you fold. In my opinion you have to secure second place first and foremost and this prevents BB from getting a walk because if I'm chip leader I'm folding if you fold.

The min raise might actually be the best play. Since BB is sitting out it really doesn't matter if SB comes over the top as long as BB doesn't get a walk. This is definitely outside the box thinking and it guarantees hero 2nd place. I like especially if we are unsure if SB has a tight calling range.

Edit: Yep, flat calling is better.
