Default 2/4 - Bluff em off now

Villain is 23/4 and has been relatively weak/tight. He's been limping lots preflop and folded the two times I raised him.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG ($228.90)
Button ($852)
Hero ($540)
BB ($1059.65)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls $4, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $20</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG calls $16.

Flop: ($44) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $30</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $60</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $520 (Villain only has $148 behind)</font>

You don't need to shove. Raising to $120 will do the same thing since his range is mostly air or a K.

I'd rather call twice than this, and I'd rather fold than both.

I should've added more. This guy is weak enough that I'd expect him to make this raise more as a feeler mid-PP type than as a pure bluff. I'd also expect him to limp/call preflop with that as a big part of his range. A raise to 120 probably keeps more of those around then I'd prefer, hence the bigger PS push.

The problem is if he's bad enough to play something like 88 or A7 like this he's probably not going to be good enough to fold it to your push.
