First post in STTF, hope this is acceptable.
Villian in this hand is MrCasino. playing 23/13/3 over 90 hands in my DB from previous sessions included.
He is the biggest winner @ the tbl (~23k profit on PS). I considered not playing when i saw he was registered, but i didnt wanna be a little bitch so here we are.
We have played in a step 2 together 2 days ago, although i am not sure how much attention he is putting in to these since he asked for the table to join his step 4.
I know from watching a few of the step 5 and 6s is that casino is a regular in them. I on the other hand am playing way over my head.
Onto the hand, 3rd thru 5th replays step 3 and the top 2 advance to step 4.

<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, SB calls t100, Hero checks
Flop: (t400) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
SB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets t300</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to t1000</font>
Do i have enough equity to shove this? Is it worth the risk in this structure? Is it the proper way to play since 3rd -5th are essentially a freeroll?
Should i fold and avoid confrontation with another big stack who is clearly better than i am? This is the reason i didnt raise preflop also.
Thanks for ur help.
