PS turbo $555 55 in the BB

Final Pot: t525

Normally, this would be an instafold. However, the villain in this hand is a bit of a donk. His sharkscope has him down a couple thousand over a few hundered tourneys. However, in the first couple levels he had been playing very tight and seemed decent. Once the blinds starting going up he opened up his game a bit, especially on my BB.

In the last 5 orbits before this, he open raised my blind 4 times(varied amounts, but hadn't minraised yet) and limped the other time. He hasn't shown willingness to play a big pot without a good hand, the hand he doubled up on he raised my BB 4x with KK and stacked a guy by playing top set aggresively.

I think all three options here have merit. I think a push has decent FE here and slightly helps my image. On the other hand, I do have a decent stack and if I'm called I'm likely way behind. I'm not sure how good my implied odds here if I just call, and I have to give up on a lot of flops. So...push, fold, or call?

Given your read, I'd push without hesitation.

Push is probably good if he's been raising your blind that much.

Who is Villain by the way?
