Villain is a reg 19/12 with AgF 5.0 in 381 hands, with 44% steal from BU in 27 hands. I know by experience playing with him that he has a loose range of steal I think 89s is a hand that plays relatively well against his calling range vs 3bet... or not?
Pushing would be better, to take over 20% ish of my stack in chips?

Grabbed by Holdem Manager
NL Holdem $50(BB) Replayer
SB ($1,113)
Hero ($1,306)
UTG ($2,805)
CO ($1,785)
BTN ($1,991)

Dealt to Hero 8♦ 9♦

fold, fold, BTN raises to $125, fold, Hero raises to $299, fold

Hero shows 8♦ 9♦

Hero wins $305

Having the hypotesis of getting all in and if:

Villain calling range vs push = 10% (in a 44% steal), approximately 1/4 times. So I win the pot 3/4 of times = 230 chips.
If he calls me, 89s against his 10% range is approximately 1/3 of victories. When he calls me, if I win the run I get 2090 chips, otherwise I'll loose 1250 chips. I.e., I'd win approximately 3*230+1* 2090 + 2*1250= 660 chips in the long run. Is this calculation correct or not?
Thanks!

didn't do the calculations, but 89s is a perfect defend on the BB for me. If villain opens wide enough, cbets enough % OTF and/or doesn't double barrel enough (cbet turn%) then it can be very profitable.
By calling you are keeping his range as wide as possible and this hand has a lot of potential on a lot of flops.

In your calculations I think it is fairly optimistic that a villain with those stats will call you w 10% range when shoving this deep (26bb deep). Though his steal% are good, that doesn't mean that villain goes monkeystyle with such a wide callingrange.

I would only 3bet bluff if he has a big fold to 3bet in a spot like this.
Further I wouldn’t show my hands against him. That could be a disadvantage when you are bluff 3bet again.
