Button's cold calling range is going to include a lot of hands like QJs, Axs, AT, 77, the first two of which you're ahead of and the latter two of which are under significant pressure to fold with a player still to act behind him on this board. The blind has a blind hand and the board ain't that coordinated and the king should prevent loose peels.

I really can't believe that people think this is close; maybe if you're up against 3 opponents it's close but not 2. I think you win immediately well more than 1/6 times and when you don't win immediately you generally have a profitable follow-up on the turn. I feel like I'm in poker bizarro world.
