22 heads up and 10xbb stack

[A_C_Slater]

This is from a 27 player $11. Villian is solid, I haven't seen anything I would consider to be a mistake. Except for one hand he limped on the button then called a 4xbb raise with 86s with a stack not deep enough to warrant it, heads up. We've been playing for like, 70 hands up to this point (starting heads up at 400/800 level.)

I didn't know if I should push preflop, or call and see if the flop came rags, and then try to get a CB from missed overs. Or check/fold a scary flop. He doesn't tend to raise on the button with low cards, even like 98,76,etc.

I push preflop but given your line I probably c/r or just open push this flop.

At 10xBB, I push PF. Even if I hadn't, I'd open push the flop, maybe except if I flopped a set with a non-scary board and might try your line.
