3-Handed vs. Big Stack Bully

[JustPlayPoker]

This is a $5 SNG at FT. The villain has been playing the part of big stack bully and has called my pre-flop raises and led out the flop a couple of times.

What do you do here?

Full Tilt Poker Game #11866395637: $5 + $0.50 Sit & Go (88959775), Table 1 - 80/160 - No Limit Hold'em - 13:42:00 ET - 2009/04/25

Villain bets 800 into a 1120 pot and Hero has 2560 behind. Easy fold? Easy shove? What do you think?

do we have to guess your other hole card and the 3rd card on the flop as well?

i think that was to get rid of all the spam which seems to have worked.

page must not have loaded properly for me last time. your right your only options are shove or fold, i think i would fold tbh but you did catch 2nd pair in a HU flop

Folding would be my usual choice, but I'd raised him at least two previous times and he called and led out instantly both times. It made me wonder whether or not he was using his stack to accumulate more chips.

My thought process was:

If I fold again, I can't raise him pre-flop without facing another lead out and I'd hurt my chances of coming in first. Otherwise, I could raise all-in on him every time I had something and risk more than 10x the BB to steal.

If I re-raise all-in here, I can gain some respect and raise his blind more often or he could call with a king and bust me out.

I felt the re-raise all-in was the long-term winner. Of course he showed K-10. This round goes to the villain, but I'll get 'em next time!

I think you have two options here, you can either come over the top all in or flat call and fold the turn. If you think hes going to two barrel a flush i think you should come over the top if you think he isnt i think you can call/fold. I dont think raising all in here would be a bad move if he has been aggressive in the past and lead out out of position before. I dont think folding is an option here in a HU flop with middle pair against an aggressive player.

EDIT: i do think my call flop fold turn option could be quite marginal considering your stack but i think especially at a $5 sng most players will never two barrell bluff.
