Ok first off, shove the flop. You dont want a decision on the turn if this kind of card hits.

If you dont shove the flop, I fold the turn, you see 2pair here often, I dont think he has a straight.

So dont worry about building the pot with just a pair?

I cant see this guy having two pair. I would be more inclined to put someone on 2 pair out of the blinds, but not the button. This guy most likely has two big cards or even better, an over pair.

I'd be looking to raise the turn and fold a shove, unless he is micro stacked.

No, a pair is only a pair. build pots with big draws or big hands, when you have a strong advantage, not when your unsure about if your ahead, keep the pots smallish.

A good rule to remember is build pots preflop with drawy hands 78s, KQs, and get it heads up with strong showdown hands. AK, AA, KK, etc. And postflop, i like to be super aggro with my big hands (especially at these low limits), raise POT preflop bet 3/4 of the pot, if you get action shove.

Actually, I have problems w/ the HH. What stack does villain have? And why is button first-to-act?
