close. you have to be sure that theres a really good likelihood of BB folding. Even if he does, button has to be a somewhat considerate villain, and/or had a history of min-raising the button or SB.

I'd shove. Even if BB comes along a lot players will fold ace rag hands from the button.

What about flat calling?

Flat calling is fine but I like shoving because there will be times when we pick up this pot without any type of showdown. BB should probably be calling with any 2 against a shove but a lot of weak tighties will fold a good number of hands praying that you and the button go to war. If I think BB if solid then flat calling looks better.

That's actually what I was thinking....you don't have any FE in a 22 here (altho you *should* b/c there is a mini-bubble goin' on in this situation)....so folding can't be bad at all, although if you think you can take the pot on the flop or encourage a 3way pot 4 second then calling looks decent to me.

Definitely worthy of consideration [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].
