11-person home tourney. Top 3 pay. 110/70/40 from a 20 buy-in.

Villian had raised my BB preflop on the button when folded to him at least half the times since we consolidated to one table. Namely, 3-4 times out of 8-9 orbits. He's sitting with about ~9000 to my ~7000. Then the hand in question.

100 ante, 300/600 blinds. Folded to Villain, raises to 1800, SB folds, Hero has 77, and he????


Figured this is push or fold??? I had a definite TAG image.........
With 6 players left, I was 5th in chips.. Enough time to wait for a better spot? Thoughts????

Unless he's been showing down great cards every time he's made this raise, I push here.

Not sure what better spot you're looking for shorthanded and nearing shortstacked, but having a PP against a blind stealer is a pretty good spot in my opinion.

If you haven't played back to any of his previous raises then I would definitely move in on him here.

Your other option would be to use a stop and go which sometimes can be a bit safer as it puts a lot of pressure on villain on the flop if it doesn't hit him hard.
