Default bubble play against loose aggressive

10 player NL SnG, 4 player left, stack size
3200, 2600, 2400, 1800

blind size 150, 300

hero with 2600 is BB, dealt A6o, loose aggressive(LA) player with 3200 is SB. The other two players are reasonably good.

LA raises to 700, you know this player will raise with any K, Q with good kicker, and some connected suits, if you reraise allin, he'll only fold the worst 15%.
If you call, he'll bet aggressively with any flop and call your raise on flop with K high.

Against this player, what's your play here?

Fold. A6o is not a hand I want to play if I know I am going to be called. You don't want to be taking unnecessary risks on the bubble; steal the blinds, play your good hands hard and let one of the others get knocked out.

IMHO, it's very close, but reraising > calling > folding.
