SB is 39/8 over 100 hands. Steal from SB 2/7.
He has had largest stack for a long time.
All opponents is passive.

Usually he limps, and fold if any re-raises all in.
Last SB he opened all in for the first time.
Now he does this. What to do?

    It's a fold imo.
    You don't have much fold equity.
    He it's his first raise like this.
    It's a micro so his calling range won't be much smaller than his opening range.

    I'm usually shoving here. If his open is a real shocker as per your reads maybe then I can find a fold and shove over his limps later. Tough with 10bb though.

    IMO disagree with generalization that calling range is substantially = opening range at this level.

    Read all the info you provided about villain again and then explain why you 3-b him with 44.

    Always folding because he does something strange is the easy solution.
    Any thoughts regarding this is the bubble? Getting even shorter and hope one of the others will bust before me, or enter top 3 with a decent stack to have greater opportunity to win the 1st price.

    Easy ICM fold.

    Range here should be 66+, ATo+, A8s+, KJs+

    KQ is breakeven, but on those stakes I'd fold it depending on the edge vs the other players.

    You have a very high ICM factor vs the bigstack. And even if you would win, you don't gain much, as you still won't be clear chipleader that would be able to abuse the bubble (the SB will keep pushing wide into you with a similar stack).
