109 bubble play

I know people think differently than i do...i try to get max effect for min investment...if i am willing to push i will just raise him 1000 here...i think that effectively equals a push. not likely he will just call. If he pushes over top, he knows im calling, so he knows to play this hand he will have to put in all his chips. just something that i feel works well for me.

I am definitely open to criticism for this move...help me understand why a push is better. or, how a push is vastly different than this raise. Thanks.

When you do this you are setting villian up perfectly to pull a stop-n-go move on you. If he calls your 1000 and pushes every flop how many times do you fold considering that you completely miss the flop 2 out of three times?
