3 handed push question

[shadow29]

Down to 3 from a 10 handed live SNG. Blinds at 150/300. I have ~3500 in the BB, compared with ~8000 on button and ~2000 in SB. Button limps, SB completes, I look down at 7/images/graemlins/heart.gif 6/images/graemlins/heart.gif and check. (Pot = 900) Flops comes 785 with two hearts. SB bets pot (?), I push and button thinks for a looooooong time, I finally call a clock, he then finally calls with J8 (no hearts). SB folds? I miss all my draws (not complaining). Was this the right play given the stack sizes and blinds? My read on the button was basically a loose passive player. He made it this far by quadrupling up by just calling (lol). He could have called with anything, and I really do mean anything.

very standard.

Yes, off the top of my head you are probably much better than 50/50 to win the hand.

IMO, you made the right move. The button made the wrong move. With a bet and an all-in reraise in front of him, he's nuts to be calling with top pair/weak kicker. Ecspecially considering the flop was rags and both blinds were in play. Still, you should be happy with his call. You were a 2-1 favorite after the flop.

fine. you were a favourite to win the hand.

Not just a small favourite either, a pretty sizeable edge.
