this was an interesting hand. UTG is the primary reason I'm at the table, weighing in at a beautiful 55/1.6/0.6. Button is a serial cold-caller who is a thinker post-flop and knows how to fold - he's at 47/13/1.6.
the bkg here is important - several hands ago button started berating me for raising him on the river when I hit my straight and he hit his flush (he called J7s after I raised AQ in early), I guess he was ticked that I scared him, telling me what a great raise it was and yadda yadda. I engaged playfully but certainly trashtalkingly, and a lot of talking ensued. Now there is def a tension there that neither of us wants to lose to the other at showdown, and I got the feeling that he was calling two any time I raised to try and catch something crazy and so he could let me hear it ...
