Party Poker $20 No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t300 (4 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)


UTG (t4650)
Button (t280)</font>
Hero (t1120)</font>
BB (t1950)</font>

Preflop: Hero is SB with 3/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
UTG folds, Button calls t280 (All-In)

What's my play? I have about t1000 after posting SB.

Do I fold and let button and BB battle it out? Do a stop and go? Or do I raise all in and try to isolate the button?

Could be cheating, but I always call and check it down here.

Like the previous poster said it would probably be good to call here and check down...trying to eliminate the SS. I would definately not push here because if you get called you are probably up against overcards in which case you are flipping a coin for the tournament or you are a big dog to a higher pocket pair.

Just play safe here...try your best to elimate the SS but dont put your tournament on the line.
