Please define squeeze.

To me a squeeze is a kind of semi-bluff, where I make a 3-bet figuring none of the other players will have enough of a hand to call it, but if I do get called, at least I have some kind of hand to work with.

I figured that the limpers have atc, and the raiser has a wide enough range for isolating the button that a 3-bet preflop will be profitable in the long run.

Right, an important element of squeeze is that the cold caller probably doesn't have much of a hand, having more dead money in the pot. Basically the cold caller can't call, and the original raiser needs a big hand because you raised a raiser and a cold caller.

.. which isn't to say this isn't profitable, just not a by definition squeeze.

But I like this so much more on the button and not OOP, obv.

Preflop is fine, BTN is isolating limper so why not pop him once in a while.

Postflop is tough, I think bet/call, check/fold or checking and calling once on a later street are all fine. Vary depending on how often BTN calls 3 bets IP, his postflop aggression in 3 bet pots. I would probably check/fold more than the other options though.

Come on you gotta expand a little here. There were some really good thoughts put into not betting here.

I still feel c/f or c/c a later street to be the best option.
