to make this +EV at all SB and Button need to be calling with only top 15% of hands( assuming BB is calling with any two), since they are calling with much wider ranges, especially button, this is an easy fold

Limping is not retarded and probably the best play. Only invest more chips after this if BB goes All-in.

You will not be to happy if BB gets a walk or doubles up.

Yeah it sucks but u cannot risk shortie getting a walk here. OP is BB next hand u want the bubble to finish here or have shortie all-in regardless next hand. Limping ensures this happens.

Also limping and folding when shortie folds increases our $EV by ~3%
