Hey everyone :)

This hand occured on last 2 tables, 10 players left so FT bubble. Money jump is not important for my BR as it was only 50$. Very limited info on players as I played only about 30 hands with them and the stacks are rather shallow, so not much postflop game. Game flow of the table was generally tigh play with strong hands.

My logic at the time was that the Villain on BTN is opening quite wide and A8s is decent against his range. I thought about flatting but that would give good opportunity for short on BB to reshove, so I decided to 3b insted, to isolate his raise and take the pot down before flop. I was folding to 4b from BTN. As you can see below, BB reshoved and I had about 2.5:1 to call and decided to call.

I am trying to figure out, what the ideal play is, but not sure.

Any input is much appreciated, thank you!
