    Right. Folding is an option, too.

    You say roukis89 is aggro. More info is needed. Has anyone challenged and taken him to showdown? Has he shown any weak pre-flop hands.
    He's betting from the CO so there is a good reason that he could be aggro-stealing if everyone is letting him get away with his steals.
    How aggro is he? Does he always defend his opening bets.

    You are is a good situation to shove/squeeze. Your stack is very good for over the top for a squeeze. You are about 7*(14000). It will not work if he wakes up with a hand. If you have been relatively tight, you will have some degree of fold equity.

    I would flat here too but I think it depends on the reads. It's either a flat or a fold.

    OP has a PERFECT re-steal stack. Take it out for a spin.

    Flatting is a leak, IMO. You're out of position, not deep enough for the implied odds of a monster flop, and you're scared even if you make your top pair either way.

    Resteal jam, right? Thanks graps and all others who replied.
