Blinds are 500-1000-100. i am OTB. I have been at the table for exactly 1 orbit. No one at table has any clue who I am.

I am wearing Bose headphones and handle chips well but I am older than pretty much everyone at table (40).

A very aggro well known internet player opens UTG to 2400 (he has multiple deep runs in Sundays and I believe won an FTOPS). Folds to me.

I have ~20BB and we are like 30ish from money.

Assume V has you covered but is he threatened by your stack size? Think its a push as well.

Oh and "No highs, no lows - its gotta be Bose!"

With beats headphones it would be a fold but Bose is a ship

V stack size would help. Anyways kinda standard shove. You could 3b induce but these young ****ers do a lot of hooding and put us in awkward spots post
