I dont played this hand, this is an hipothetic case. The SB seems a maniac.

This push is right?

PokerStars - €4.73+€0.27|20/40 Ante 4 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 4 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (CO): 16.2 BB
BTN: 23 BB (VPIP: 20.00, PFR: 11.11, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 10)
SB: 16.75 BB (VPIP: 55.56, PFR: 44.44, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 10)
BB: 19.05 BB (VPIP: 32.27, PFR: 26.46, 3Bet Preflop: 13.33, Hands: 258)

4 players post ante of 0.1 BB, SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.9 BB) BB has A♥ 2♠

fold, fold, SB raises to 2 BB, BB raises to 18.95 BB and is all-in, SB calls 14.65 BB and is all-in

Problem here is that ICM is a factor as well and I wouldn’t flip with a hand like A2o against someone that will call most likely to wide as well. Only if he folds a lot in a spot like this I would consider it.

Its a 6max so its top 2 pay, so its not on the bubble just yet
The sample size is too small to see what he is doing when facing 3bets, but I think you can assume if hes playing 56/44 he is highly likely to call a 3bet
I think if I was the BB I would just call his raise and take a flop

Seeing the flop by cold calling in position is not too bad here I I think

That’s indeed a good option, but it’s always tricky when an ace comes up, because you could end up dominated.

He's so loose though surely you can't fold for 1BB IP?
He's raising 44% and now its BvB its probably even higher percentage, it might get tricky post flop but I think you've got to see a flop and go from there

Ye, I think you should decide what to do when you see the flop and even if you hit an Ace I would try to control the pot as much a I could coz you would face "way ahead/way behind" king of situation. Folding kind of tight and exploitable play here from my standpoint but I assume fold is not a mistake here either as soon as you haven't collected a decent sample on him.
Besides that, I guess this is a simulation for Hyper Turbo game so loosing with a dominated A is not a crime. This type is supposed to involve a lot of such tricky spots.
