Depending on the type of player BTN can shove fairly wide here with his stack size, or he'll call anything he'd limp.
If BTN calls SB is super likely to call anything he'd limp with.
Then BB is the most likely to shove if anyone calls, or if he doesn't do that then he'll call too.
If you have reads that SB/BB will fold a decent amount raising is fine, otherwise it's a more expensive limp and even when you hit you'll mostly be guessing if one of the other 3 villains played some random any4 that hit better.
Pretty much spot on, though I suppose there's a case for simply just folding pre - especially if you feel like the table is soft and/or just to maintain a tighter image until later. Double-suited and 3 wheel cards is pretty, but hero has the table covered chip-wise and blinds aren't even that high...can likely find much better spots with a stack like that.
Only assumption that seems a bit odd is BB jamming, since there's still a lot of potential value for him in just flatting(or checking if limped). BTN jam might be just as likely as BB, but still not too often I'd think at these blinds.
