Default Mini Step 5, Need Help...nOOb

Hey,

I don't play very many SnG's and never at this lvl, I worked my way up from mini step 1 in 4 tournies. My ROI is fairly high for the small # I play.

Villan has been playing Table captian since we have gotten to the $, have been playing 5 handed for a while and every raise usually is either a mini raise or all in, both usually steal the blinds.

Hero has A7o on the button, blinds 100/200 hero has 1345 villan has 2.6k, 10k chips in play.

I'll add the other stackes in, in case this helps
UTG 1.3
CO 1.8
SB 2.5

UTG folds, CO folds, hero raises to 400, SB folds, Villan raises all in, Hero ???

Villan has done this twice before after I have tried to steal the blinds, both times I have folded

Do you mean hero calls?

In the meantime, I think you should consider thinking about the gap concept. That might help you when you get to this situation.

There's probably only about 1 or 2 hands that I would consider limping against a player like this.

unless i'm trying to entice action, the only raise i make when i have less than 10BB is a push.

I'll keep that in mind, I called, he had AQ and MHWNG, so I took home a measly 200 dollars from my 6 dollar buy in
