Still trying to solidify my strategy. Any help would be greatly appreciated by this newbie.
This feels like it's supposed to be an easy push or an easy fold. Unfortunately I don't know which.
Push rationale: I have <10xBB and have not "stolen" the blinds in two orbits or so. Button looks reasonable - nothing completely insane yet. I have FE against Button and BB. SB is big stack but was being rather tight for an $11er (folding to minraises from BB at Level 3, folding his SB w/ a limper in the pot, etc.).
Fold rationale: CO clearly does not equal Button (the one that glares at me). Also, I haven't shown down a pot yet, so no one knows what I'm playing. I still have plenty of chips and half of Level 4 to go. A6s is clearly going to have problems against hands that call me.
Leak to fold, leak to push?
