Any reads on SB that he's done out of the ordinary so far or previous play with villain?

I think against an unknown, it's fine to raise this and see what he does. If he shoves, hate to do it, but call and hopefully see some crap like Q10 or two hearts, drawing heavily over a set. AQ seems like a very big possibilty, as does AJ, with the minimal raise from the SB.
