the default vs an unknown should be to push in this spot. if you had a specific read that villian opened tight from this spot then i guess a fold is ok, but you would need a pretty good read (or just know villian is a total nit).

calling is bad imo.

Push looks OK if he's not real tight in EP, and especially if he's aggressive post-flop. But we have position with a real hand and an OK stack so a call isn't bad either IMO, especially if he's pretty straightforward post-flop. If the blinds were about to go up, I'd be more likely to push.

he is on co+1, so even tightes loosen up in this seat. it would be a pretty easy fold if he was tight and opening L4 from co+3 or co+4.

Looks like a push with 450 out there, IMO.

I'd certainly push.

Calling is bad, folding is worse IMO.

Agree, but some villains don't adjust much until it's 6 handed. I'm most interested in how low he's going with PPs and Ax and whether there's any Kx in there, because this has a huge impact on FE.
