    Default against an aggy button?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2.00+$0.20 Tournament, 500/1000 Blinds 125 Ante (2 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Hero (SB) (t81997)
    Button (t46531)

    Hero's M: 43.73

    Preflop: Hero is SB with 10, K
    Button raises to t46406 (All-In), Hero ???

    There is another player at the table but he's sitting out and the converter isn't showing him. Sitting out player has 51472 in chips (if that matters)

    history to this point is I've been stealing with any 2 and btn has been taking it without fighting back, however when he'd steal, I'd 3bet and he'd fold. About 3 rounds before this one, he started open-shoving (not giving me the chance to 3bet him). I figured he was doing it fairly wide, but I wasn't sure how wide and my hands through those rounds were horrible. This is the first decent hand I get when he open shoves again.

    A side note, not sure if this matters: I went back and checked the history for the last several rounds and he had also started 3bet shoving me on about 1/2 my steals as well.

    My table image is very aggro. When we were 4 player, I had kept 3 betting the 4th player of his steals (4th player never played back at me). I had also been stealing because they would let me. When 4th player went out, this guy woke up and started playing back at me. Suggestions?

    you are behind the top 25% and only 60/40 vs a random hand. You need to be sure you're ahead given the price

    you're still deep enough that you can let retards be retarded. I fold here given your limited read. If he starts doing this every hand than you can start thinking about calling with a hand like this, but I'd still rather wait and let him blow up.

    Fold and he wins a little pot, sounds good to me.
