If your read is right, then you may have to fold. But I'm probably being too weak tight. whats the bb? It really depends on that.

400, as stated in the OP. So I'm not in a critical situation, although I think the blinds were about to go up in the next hand or two.

The OP didnt have a BB when I read it, but anyway, given that its a tough decision.

If the blind is about to go up, then you will be in trouble. I don't think you can wait much longer and you are the shortstack. Besides, his range includes lower aces even if he is tight.

I guess you have to push.

CO is tight, this is an easy fold with your stack. Preserve it in this situation.

I think this is an easy fold based on your read. I feel that you will be behind too much of the time, and there's a chance that the sb may call.

I think I push this, though I'm not real happy about it.

Regardless of your reads, if you are going to play this hand you have to push PF. And that would be horrible with 2 stacks to act that can knock you out, one of whom has already put a good size raise into the pot.

Fold.
