Villain is weak. I'm assuming that he opens something like: 22+, A9s+, KTs+, QTs+, JTs, AJo+, KQo (13% of hands.)
Rather basic question, but I am unsure of how to handle this spot. Should I shove here, or 3-bet to something like 8.5BB?
The problem with shoving is: I'm investing 19BB to win 3.5BB, which seems a bit excessive.
The problem with 3-betting to 8.5BB is that if he shoves, I'm getting 28% pot odds, so I have to call with almost anything I 3-bet. So I don't really have the possibility of a 3-bet bluff. So I might as well shove.
