got squeeze?
okay so this guy is a 17/19/infinty over 150 hands. at this point i had been at the table for about 8 hands. i had 3 bet him pre the previous two hands, one of which i took a $60 pot down with no showdown, and the first 3 bet he folded to PF. that brings us to this hand. it seems like this might be a tilt squeeze or a "screw you how does it feel" kinda bet.
I think this looks like a good spot for a 4 bet bluff shove, but im too big a pussy to do it, so i folded. what are other peoples thoughts?

Reads on the SB are somewhat important as well.
In general I think it will take him more than 8 hands (even if you've 3-bet him twice) to adjust to the point that 4-bet bluffing is good, and if you do feel you've come to that point then he's probably not folding that many better hands than AT anyway. You're hoping for him to fold AJ and 22-88?
If this was button vs blinds then I could see both shoving and calling as reasonable options if the dynamics are right, this being UTG vs BB and with a caller in between, I think a shove is pretty much suicide.
