Default $20 NL PS - AT vs aggressive opponent with position

Villain's been aggressive all game. Here he's got position and I give him a quite wide range. Is a push good here?

EDIT: my image is fairly TAG so I figure I've got good FE here as well

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t200 (5 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t2550)
CO (t2365)
Button (t3585)
Hero (t2985)
BB (t2015)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="red">Button raises to t800</font>, <font color="red">Hero?</font>

Heavens: you must be totally disregarding the read. Against someone very aggressive and opening from the BTN, ATo should be a pretty easy shove.

If he is aggressive AT should be ahead of his range [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

i push, it was close but the fact that you are not very far ahead of 3 other stacks puts pushing ahead of folding to me

Is he always raising this big from the button (4xbb)?

I wouldn't count on having too much FE here. Villain will be getting about 2.5 to 1 on calling your reshove. Unless you've seen him fold to pushes getting prices like this, I probably just fold here. It's also important to note whether this is his standard opening raise, or if this is larger than his normal raise. If this has been his standard raise, I'd be much more inclined to get my money in. Also, I think some people would argue that a stop 'n go is better than a repush, but I'm not sure.

As I recall, he was quite eager to open raise 3-4X BB yes, although I'm not sure of his position for all of these... many games ago now [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
