Easy fold. You still have time to find a better spot. Ever notice how many guys bust out of tourneys with AQ? They shove in spots like these...

Snap fold? Not. We're against a LAG CO open and button iso raise. (Although the samples for both players is rather small). But under the circumstances, folding is too nitty. Sure we may see AK and QQ+ with the button raise, but we may also see 99, 87s, and AJ.

Hard decision.
Depends on how much credit you give the villains as thinking players.
The cutoff can raise with so many foldable things there and the Button should know this.
Also You have a very good squeeze hand here.

To make sure i would like to know how much the cutoff usually bets.
I'm the only one that thinks his bet was a bit large?

I did not specifically mean "see." He won't call a shove with that. What I meant if I worded it more clearly is that 87s may be in his 3b iso range. Or at the very least, it should be. He doesn't have the stack to flat suited connectors anymore, but against someone opening in LP with a 47/47 stats, it's a great hand to 3b semi bluff.

Button has enough behind that he is more likely to fold here without AA KK AK and his range is way wider than this if he is any decent..I like push

I guess I agree that if BTN is thinking his range could be wider. I just saw a 10/6 guy 3bet so I thought it was an easy fold.

yeah i dunno i guess with out reads that Button is a thinking player we have to assume his range has us in bad shape so fold and find a better spot.... would this be an accurate assumption
