Hey guys, I was just curious as to your thoughts on this particular hand. I am pretty sure I can't just flat call here as I would be OOP. I figure my only options are to shove or fold. I don't have any reads on the button raiser, but I figure his range is probably fairly wide. Any advice or suggestions are appreciated.

shove or 3-bet call is good

I was considering 3-betting, but I just figured a shove is the best way to ensure I get a fold. I know many players at this level are willing to call with weak hands and I didn't really want to play this hand post-flop if I missed it. But I also understand the 3-bet/shove on the flop is probably the more proper play given my stack size. Just for your information, I ended up getting called by the BB and the button with QJo and T3o respectively. I ended up losing the hand when a jack hit on the flop and a three hit on the river.
