Originally reraised small to iso the sb who wasnt very good and who I figured would call. Button's 4bet sits wrong and feels a lot like air. If we assume this is all correct, and he has a poor hand (say ATo for the sake of argument) that we feel he CAN fold to a shove, is there more value in just shoving pre or checkbombing any flop (also assume he's going to bet the flop 100%)?

Note: I understand it's usually a shove/fold situation.

Since he just put in close to 50% of his stack I think he will feel obligated to call off the rest with a lot of hands if you push. There is always a chance if he has JJ and the flop is AKQ that he will cf or something so push it in.

You made nearly a pot-sized 3-bet, so I don't see why your reraise was "small," and I guess you had a read on Button too, because I don't see any reason based on the action (except that it's a blind-steal situation) to figure he's re-potting light.

So I personally wouldn't be thrilled about the situation, but since your hand seems a little too good to fold in this blind-steal situation, and if you just call you've committed nearly half of your effective stack, I guess you might as well go ahead and push.
