I wasn't folding to any raise, so I should've pushed a little harder. I did not extract the max here. Where do I get more?

Reraise the flop?

Yeah, def. the flop. With his raise, you're looking at a t750 pot - holding t1700'ish back. A push just might get called. If not, you add almost 30% to your stack.

Looking to collect more, I would have at least min-raised him back - if you're willing to accept the results of giving him the turn cheap. If we get this far, I'm pushing the 2nd club on the turn - no more free cards. But ultiimately, I'd just take it down PF. You're dancing with a villian that can kill you if his hand improves. You're looking at a very nice pot to help get you through the bubble.

Ps. A bigger gamble, but possibly more profitable line: with your simple call on the flop, a modest lead on the turn might appear to be a "blocking bet". With his stack, he might assert himself again here with a Q or draw. If he doesn't bite, but simply calls - you still have to value bet the river. If he doesn't bite on the turn, he's not likely to lead behind your checked river.
