What are the blinds? What is your stacksize, even though you are in second this # could vary greatly? Not knowing this if he was aggressive postflop I might checkraise all in but id probably just shove or make a bet that commits us both.

I'd either bet out allin, or checkraise allin. I prefer the first option, say 60/40, just in case he has overcards to hit. I don't think I have to tell you that you are VERY likely ahead here.

I guess one question I have is whether the chip leader has a big lead or a small lead? How big was your lead over 3d, 4th, 5th, 6th.

With 6 left in the game, you're probably nowhere near a lock on making the money, though doubling up would put you in a dominant position.

If you think chip leader has not much better than two random cards (i.e., raising EVERY bet), I think I'd probably push and live with the consequences.
