I played this wrong. When he 4-bets all in, I'm left with nearly 2:1 pot odds to make the call. I only had maybe 7 hands on him at this point. He had raised 2 of them, but could have just had good hands.

Obviously folding is safest here. I think shipping it is better than my 3-bet. What about a click-back to say 550? Then if he calls we can play the hand with the lead, and if he 4-bet ships it we can fold pretty easily.

I'm thinking fold > click-back > 3-bet ship?

If you insist on 3-betting I prefer shipping. If you have his stack size any 3-bet is going to be a jam so you shouldn't change sizing based on your stack size. I've jsut had a quick look over some numbers and over a wide oepning range anf a fairly tight calling range shoving is definitely +ev. imo most people open too tight and call too loose which would push me towards folding. I don't like the click back to 550 at all.

I mean with not much stats I'm probably folding here -- but if you want to 3-bet its a ship IMO.
