I would make it 3 bets preflop and call a jam. It's button vs blinds and our hand is very strong. About 350 seems optimal - it's a $5 sng so this seemingly large and exploitable sizing isn't really an issue as this player probably won't read much into it and may still feel they have fold equity.

As played, I like a check-minraise on the flop. We don't really want to just call and give them the opportunity to pair any overcard, and we don't want to blow them off a fairly weak holding either by checkraising all-in. This way, we also still give them the chance to "spazz out" with complete air.

Thanks! I really like your analysis Brickie, you brought up a lot of things I hadn't thought of, can't wait to try them next time. I guess there are some serious and useful posters in this web site.
