Full ring table that was 3-handed when I stumbled onto it, and is now quickly filling up.
Reads: Poster in the CO & Button are unknown. SB is pretty well unknown, but in watching a few hands while waiting to post he's looked like the live one at this table. I'm posting in my first hand at the table, so no table image.
In the interest of saving some preflop debate, I called the raise because: A), I'm sooted & expecting 7:1 pot odds; B), Button should be raising with practically any two cards in this situation; and C), I don't respect SB's coldcall any more than I respect the openraise from Button.

Anyone think of alternate lines that balance max profit when ahead with minimum loss when not?
