Sorry about the HH. Does anybody know of a HH converter that works with Intertops?

Seat 10: 71thedonat6r (9,384 in chips)
otto712: posts ante of 100
GentJ: posts small blind 500
_Ubermensch_: posts big blind 1,000
Dealt to loxxii22 [Ad,Jd]
71thedonat6r: folds
otto712: calls 1,000
Kung Boan: folds
Captain 9: folds
DonkiStax1: folds
loxxii22: raise or shove?
 
Villain was running 18/0 over 40 hands and is a losing player.
 
We are both in the top 5 in chips. He may have been in 1st. 
There are about 30 players left and 7 pay. This is a turbo.
 
We have 100 antes so there is 3400 in the middle which is almost 15% of my stack. 
I dont mind shoving a hand like this in a turbo given these parameters. 
 
The thought just crossed my mind that maybe I should be a little more cautious going up against a fellow big stack even in 
spots that seem standard to me.

I would probably be the opposite of cautious vs this particular villain. He is a fish with lots of chips. Raise his limps, play pots with him IP when you can, and try to steal his chips. I would 3x with AJs here and fold if he limp shoves. This type of player will limp/call with lots of hands we dominate and hopefully he flops a dominated pair on the flop and so we can double up. If we were closer to 20bb then I would just ship it preflop. We are far away from the money so try to accumulate as many chips as possible from this fish before he gives them away to someone else.
