Reads: I just doubled up from Villain after I open-pushed with top pair and he called with AQ high. He may be tilting, and in general, he's just a donk who attained his chips through a rush of cards. When he raises from the BB here, I'm almost 90% sure that he does not have a PP, but high cards. I'll preface this by saying ill call with any two in the SB/BB when I'm getting reasonable pot/implied odds and I have chips to spare (I guess you could say I employ the "play to win, not to money" strategy). I'm very confident in my postflop play at the 5+1s (who isn't?) so this is a standard PF play on my part.

Assuming you're not a gimmick account, this is a def fold preflop. Your completion was atrocious and then ur calling of the mini raise was even more. That said, I check raise all in on the flop if your read is right.

If you want to stay at the $5+1's - keep playing like this.

You're purposely getting involved in a hand with the other big stack four handed. Either raise preflop and fold to a push or just fold it down. A major part of your skill edge at the 6s comes from stealing blinds at the high levels.
