Default Flopped Top Set on Monotone Board - $200 B&M

$200 Buy-in, 3/5 Blinds at my local B&M

Relevant stacks:
Hero (UTG) $300
Button $280 (Regular at this level)
SB $200 (Very loose, but sometimes lucky, calling station. Has rebought 2 times in last 15 minutes though)

Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Hero raises to $25, folded to button, Button calls, SB calls, BB folds.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players - Pot $80)
SB checks, Hero bets $75, Button calls, SB calls.

Turn: 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players -Pot $300)
SB raises all-in $100, Hero ....?


Comments on PF? Standard opening raise was $15-20.

Should I have just pushed the flop?

On the turn, I know I'm behind any club. I'm pretty sure Button flopped the big flush and SB probably turned a small one. Should I chase the river, hoping to fill up.

Results:
<font color="white">...Hero pushes all-in $200, Button tanks for but calls all-in $180.

River: 9:heart (3 players - Pot $680)
SB has 5:club 6:spade (Flush)
Hero has A:spade A:diamond (3 of a kind - Aces)
Button has Kclub: Q:club (Flush - King kicker)

he didn't push and he's all-in if he calls.

i must've misread the action.

let me fix it:

calling all-in on the turn is absolutely horrendous - it is much, much worse than pushing since you have no fold equity. you are literally throwing $x in the air and handing them to your opponent.
