Default four handed live game $ .50/1.00 blinds, small stacks

Shorthanded live game with two LAGgy players and one Tight Passive. Villain preflop raising range is very wide (all pairs, KT+, any ace, QT, QJ)

blinds are $.50/1
Stacks are short. Villain with $30, me with $40.

Villain raises UTG to $4. folded to me.
I get A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in the big blind

I...? (action in white)
<font color="white"> raised it to 11 and villain calls: pot is 23.50. </font>

flop is A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Pushing is my best option, correct?


How does my play change with A9-AT? AK?
What if I had TT preflop?

thanks

That's a huge PFR. Also, given the pot and stack sizes, you've gotta just stick it in.

If you think he'll bet I'd consider c/r allin but there's really no room for that anyways. Preflop is meh, reraising semi-big OOP with a marginal hand, I'd hate it if I missed.

If calls reraises a lot you're still very likely ahead and I push the flop anyway.

Villian raised preflop, this info is meaningless.

OP: Against this type of villian, I think PF action is fine. You have no choice other than pushing here. You can't risk giving a free card that is going to complete a flush or straight.
