Party 350k qualifier, 24+2 buy in. The donks have pretty much left the table, and I haven't seen a flop outside of the blinds in the whole SnG (terrible cards). So here I am...

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (6 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

MP (t2316)
CO (t729)
Button (t975)
SB (t1880)
Hero (t755)
UTG (t1345)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 2/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
UTG calls t100, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Button calls t100, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (t400) A/images/graemlins/club.gif, A/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 3/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t175</font>, Button is all in [t875] , SB folds, Hero...?

Is Button bluffing or pushing with a flush draw often enough to make this call here? Or do I lay down trip aces with no kicker?

Does anyone like pushing preflop here?

Fold, especially with UTG left to act behind you.

Why fold a set? b/c of small licker? 2 people bet and at best only one of them can have an Ace. One might have a PP (which you beat) very likely one might have an Ace... I guess folding is the safe play since the pair is on the boar and not in your hand.

And what does it mean when one of them has an Ace?

That you are drawing to three outs.

Easy fold because people online love to play Ax.

Lay this down. Like Freudian said, being outkicked is lousy.

There's either a flush draw, a PP out there, or an ace that has a higher kicker than you do. If either of them has an ace, you need to lay this down, and I think that happens too much of the time.
