Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.25/$0.5 No-Limit Hold'em (3 handed)

Known players:
[tg]BB$50.00:///////;BU (Hero)$50.50:///////;SB$27.46:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BU with A:c, J:s.
Hero raises to $1.25, SB raises to $4.00, BB folds, Hero ???

SB is unknown.

His raise is relatively big (for his stacksize). My hand is relatively good for stealing from BU. I have a few options, but at the moment all of them seem to be as good as the others:

-fold: his raise-Size scares a little bit and my hand is dominated very often
-Call: AJ is good hand from my stealing-Range + IP
-push: maxFE + AJ has a good blockingability
-minraise: I can still fold to a push, have little FE but can play some Flops IP

Hi.

Vs aggro opponents the best play would be to call (anyone with 10%+ 3bet range in these positions SB vs BU).

Without reads, I think you can opt for the safer option of 4bet/fold. It would be pretty hard to play readless postflop as the caller. Would make it 8 or 9$ and fold to a 5bet.

Pushing here readless is by far the worst play.

Thanks.
