Default $60 L6 bubble vs aggro bigstack

i only had 130 hands villian, but he was tight early and really aggro L6+, lots of stealing blinds, etc. i had a note on him from a previous games which is really unusual for me.

Why pushing vs the only guy who can bust you?

I don't think this can be EV+ evn given your read.

It could easily be +EV.

I need a read that he isn't calling much here though.

I really like it. He won't think you would do this w/o a big hand, given stack sizes. And, he can't call you without a real big hand, which he most likely doesn't have, given his raise size. I would think he raises less with a bigger hand, hoping to get some action.

Nice hand.

It's not bad but I'd probably pass unless I knew him a lot better.

Looks good but I would like it if you had more or less equal chips then SB.

ya if we had a few hundred more i'd like this even better because we might get 1010 and AK to fold.

ps assuming blinds 100/200, when people open to 800 (instead of 600) is that more often to discourage a push or induce one? just wondering in general how the games are playing, or if there's a consistent pattern at all.

Is 700 a normal raise size?
This good be fine in a bubble but it obviously becomes really exploitable. It's good thinking though.
