With no read, I would check and look to steal the pot after the flop with a 400 chip bet if checked.
If you rasie to 600 and he calls, you have built quite a pot. If he checks the flop, then you need to fire off another 600-800 to try and steal. I don't like building big pots if i'm trying to steal with 4-8 off. |

I like the way you're thinking because that's what I did..(Checked and bought pot at the flop once he checked)
However I'm guessing there are folks in this forum who would advise a raise (push?) every time due to it being the bubble and considering Villain has to fold without a premium hand? Maybe I'm mistaken. |

Without a read, that would just be crazy. |
