4 betting light, line check ..

[ChipSpeak]

ITM ~25 remaining of 440. Villain had repopped me twice previous to this (previous hand), been on table with him ~60 hands, when the antes kicked in, so did his repops, by this I make the assessment he's a thinking player , he can fold here most of the time. Not that 4 betting light is a frequent occurrence for me by any means, based on previous action, this ok?

good aggro play

Just make sure everyone new notices the stack sizes here, they're what makes this work. Don't do this to a villain with 20k then be like "oops he called."

I love it.

Very nice read-oriented play.

I will echo the comment about how the stack sizes
were of prime importance here as well.

This is just fine. You're basing this on stack sizes and position and reads. One slight problem is that BB stack is so small that when SB RRs, he probably has something. But you had a nice read that he's a thinking player, and that makes a 4-bet a nice play here.
