this is sb/bb, he had not raised my blind yet (although i don't think that he had the oppertunity until now), so my read on him was that he was weak. what range of hands do you push here?

Take a look at your monitor. See that coupon for 10% off Top Ramen at Safeway paired with the receipt for your latest fashion disaster purchase? Push those.

Seriously, you will be hurt bad next hand by the blinds popping you. Unless he has pushed hard all tourney long from this position (and suddenly pulled back here), you have to pop back with anything better than 84o.

Since you are the only one that knows your ?? cards, what would you do with those same cards if it were just you and he HU for $1000.00? That should about cover your range of calling/pushing hands.

Maybe he hadn't raised because he didn't have good cards. Even most 2+2ers don't steal much in level 3 and this is only level 4. I'm not really seeing how the fact that he is possibly tight means that you should re-raise all in with junk.

If he had been raising alot, I'd be more likely to push, not the other way around.

Personally, I think you've got enough chips that you can afford to fold pre-flop here without a good hand.

If you disagree (which I'm sure many will) I'd love to hear why. I'm obviously open to the possibility of being wrong.
