Re: So it\'s 3 bets to me in the BB with A8o....I cap

also, I'd wait till I get a better read on button before i attempt something like this. I'd feel good about this if I had seen button 3 betting to isolate mp3 specifically with weaker hands than pocket pairs.

I think the fact that he bet the river with 22, unimproved, and won at showdown against MP3 is huge in this regard. I believe in that hand MP3 had A4o, and check/called all the way to showdown.
I'm basically banking on Button's 3-betting range against MP3 to be similar to what mine would be...which includes most of the hands I'd openraise with from the Button. If I'm right on that, then combined with MP3's raising range, there's a pretty fair chance that I already have the best hand. Or that either I or MP3 will provide enough pressure on the flop to get Button out with a small pp or slightly better ace.
