Its early and I'm out of position, would a raise here fare well?

UTG folds, UTG+1 calls t20, MP1 calls t20, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO calls t20, Button raises to t100, Hero ?

I like reraising around 400.

I wouldn't give a ton of credit to the button for raising with just 3 limpers at the 10/20 level. You make the big move, see what button does and go from there. Folding would just feel dirty, and calling doesn't get you any information.

Just call, if you raise you are committing yourself to the pot pf (if you aren't calling then shoving>>>>>raising).

i agree with Kevin, either shove or call.

I'd probably take a flop.

I like a call with only 7 percent of your stack involved.
U will get some very profitable postflp spots then.
