Default Final table hand against colson10

This is from 10rb at Stars, but since the opponent is well known high stakes MTT player I am posting here. Please move this to SSMTT if necessary.

Hero has been aggressive at the final table as has colson10. Throughout the final table hero and villain have played very few big pots against each other being 2 chip leaders. Colson doesn't know who I am, so I'm probably seen as a typical 10rb donk by him.

3 players left, hero has raised about 70%-80% from the button when 3 handed since bb is a very tight passive and gives up his blinds way too easily. Colson has 3-bet before as has Hero against colson's constant button raises. In these cases button has always folded.

Hero (5411444 in chips)
colson10 (4863592 in chips)
BB (2378464 in chips)
colson10: posts small blind 60000
XXX: posts big blind 120000
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to Hero [Ad Jh]
Hero: raises 180000 to 300000
colson10: raises 780000 to 1080000

Push, call or fold?

Please note that if hero and colson end up in HU -match with even stacks, colson most likely has a decent edge.

Am I missing something here? Is there really any other option than pushing? I also think AJo is ahead of Colson's calling range 3-handed...

Really? Colson has 40bb's. I don't think he is calling with worse hands if I shove. Of course I'm well ahead of his 3-bet range, but in pretty bad shape against he's calling range. I was just wondering if stacks are deep enough to call his raise and play poker?

then he's playing really really exploitably and you should be 4betting air, but I think you're wrong

Difficult for him to call a push, since you have a slight lead and he takes 3rd if he loses. Therefore, I would be hesitant to 3-bet without the good if I were him. Think you have to push though.

Ok. So pretty much everyone would shove here. I did also and Colson folded. Anyway, afterwards I felt really dirty pushing 40bb's with AJo. People say that he would call with worse hands, but I have difficult time believing that. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] It would be nice if Colson would tell us what he's calling range was in that particular situation.

I didn't know that was you at the final table...I was twelver1232 busted 6th. Don't remember much about how you played just remember the whole final table how I thought it was odd that Colson was even playing the 10r.

Why? You are playing 3-handed. I've pushed 40BBs with much worse.
