MP3 only has about $10 behind after his raise. This is a push / fold moment, I think.

1) Do you agree;
2) What do you choose?

MP3 has only shown down one hand, where he bet the river with top pair (busted flush draw) against a pretty obvious boat.

1) Definitely push or fold
2) Fold unless you think he can do this with &lt;TP

Shove, unless he has AT or a set here you're a slight favorite. And even if he does have AT you're not that far behind. Plus the dude is a shortstack, may not even be on top pair.

You have two overs also. I don't understand Jouster's second point since we're pretty much the same vs any pair. Basically push if you think he's bluffing?

I think I'd just push and get it over with. Maybe he'll even fold with a bad pair.

I push, hoping that I have 15 outs + a tiny drop of fold equity (~5%).

I'm thinking this one becomes a fold when villain has like $5 - $10 more in his stack.

My point was that if TP is the worst part of his range then we are badly beaten. Here is a range that reflects that:
Board: 3h 5h Th
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 58.640% 58.33% 00.31% 27717 148.50 { TT, 55, 33, AKs, ATs, KhQh, KhJh, KTs, Kh9h, QhJh, QTs, JTs, 9h8h, 8h7h, 7h6h, AcKh, AdKh, AsKh, ATo, KTo }
Hand 1: 41.360% 41.05% 00.31% 19506 148.50 { AhQs }

I didn't correctly consider the amount of dead money though and this push with this range is EV=$1 so it is the correct move. Even better if he ever could fold or if he has anything worse than TP.

I stand corrected.
