Default Squeezing

In the big blind with 9bb after posting the blind, with J7, would you squeeze vs a co+1 raise of 3bb and a button caller, with no reads? With antes the pot is about 8bb. Large $75 MTT, no near money.

PF has 30bb stack, caller had 42bb stack.

Generally after pushing here, would you expect the PF to fold and the button to call? The PF being scared of further action from the button, the button calling with great odds?

Lastly, i presume this move's effectiveness changes quite a bit depending upon if someone calls or not... Hence, would the math work out better if i had a 12-15bb stack to push around?

The two villains are too deep not to call getting 2:1 odds.

You need them to be shorter stacks and you need to be closer to the bubble and you need reads for this to be a good play.

My rule of thumb at low limits, is dont bother trying to squeeze, only for value!
