Default AK in BB

Bodog $50+5

started with 3000 chips and im down to about 2700.

Have a very tight image. and table is reasonably tight except for LAG chipleader and a couple of Semi LAGs.

Blinds are 50/100 and go up every 15 mins.

It folds around to the semi LAG in the SB. He plays alot of hands preflop and prolly raises about 10-15%.

He raises to 350.

And i have AKo in the BB.

Is a push good here??

push is ok but some lags love to 4bet in blind battles I am def one of them so against some people raising to 1k is just as good.

uhhhh, yes. absolutely clear-cut push. there is nothing else you can do here that is even arguably close to as good as pushing.

hero is content to take the 700chips in the pot and not showdown.

hero does not want JT or similar near-random hands to continue. hero would love for a small pp to fold.

Against another ace or king, sure he wants a call, but barely.

all in all, hero would rather villain just folds.
most of the stuff villain 4 bets with he calls with anyway.
