Three players matter here:
Button is holding about $10.00
Hero is holding about $40.00
BB is holding about $40.00

Hero in SB (.25)
BB posts BB (.50)
5 handed

Hero is dealt pocket 3s
2 fold, button limps
Hero completes
BB checks

Flop 2 /images/graemlins/club.gif 4 /images/graemlins/club.gif 5 /images/graemlins/diamond.gif

Hero bets $2
BB raises $8 ($10 total)
Button calls (all-in)
Hero?

At this point, I'm like WTF?
BB is a pharmacist who likes to semi-bluff hard (he's got the bankroll to do it).
Button has a tendency to call hard bets even without proper odds if he's got a OESD or flush draw.
Everyone is drunk but me.

I had no idea what to do here, but, honestly, I put BB on the flush draw and no idea about the button, but maybe mid pockets or anther draw. The only thing that had me scared was if someone had hit a set, but I had an open-ender to beat that. At this point, I thought I was ahead, and even if I wasn't, I had pot odds to call on the straight draw.

What hero did in white:

Thanks in advance for any comments - even if you call me a donk /images/graemlins/smirk.gif
