Shortie had been just bearly hanging on for about an 10 hands and i had been pushing pretty much every hand besides the ones he was a blind in. Do you think this resteal is a good idea considering i had pushed so much and he must have at least a good hand to make a minraise with how i had been playing prior to that even tho my folding equity still has to be extremly high with the thought of busting on the bubble in the back of villians mind. Would this play maybe more effective in the high sngs (Do you think this guy is possibly not smart enought to realize that he should not call with AT even tho he is almost for certain ahead of me for example?) Thanks for the suggestions

This raise just screams AA/KK to me. If he had something like AT I'd expect him to shove his stack in instead. Possibly I'm giving your average 10+1 player too much credit, but I think I'd ease up this hand.

Villian ended up calling with QQ and doubled up off me. In hindsight i guess a fold is better because i will still have enormous folding equity for several hands and will have several more chances to steal. And can push any 2 as long as shorty is not in the blind and the pot is unraised.
