Any reads on the SB?

I would guess hes on a mid pp, or an ace x. The problem with the ace x is that his x is probably a 10 or greater, increasing the likelyhood of you being on the three outter. I like calling here and re-evaluating your situation on the flop, hopefully you have some reads to help you out.

Folding is bad.

Pushing is too dangerous here IMO.

Wish you didn't have position so you could stop + go.

Push and win = Hero has 6500 or so and is ITM with chip lead
Push and lose = Hero has 2500 or so (villain in 2nd position)

Hero has 2 hands to play before blinds hit again presenting at least 1 steal opportunity (assuming a loss of this hand).

I push here and force him to make the decision. Hero has a hand that plays well HU. Villain is most likely holding Ax or mid-pair at best. At the lower levels Hero pushing will induce a fold most times on the bubble. Mid-pair or a monster, KQ still has a decent chance to win.

You should have real FE, and you can't be much, if at all, behind. Push it.
