UTG in this hand is 50/6.25/5, but over a tiny number of hands. Button in this hand is 48/27/2.7.

Preflop: Hero is SB with A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, T/images/graemlins/diamond.gif.
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG caps</font>, Button calls, Hero calls.

Flop: (13 SB) 8/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif, T/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, Hero??

I was trying for a check-raise here, but now I'm not so sure... On the one hand, I've got TPTK, and Button could be raising on a draw, but on the other hand, UTG limp re-raised, and I don't have any hearts. Any thoughts?

Fold'em. Scary board.

OP: Your flush is shot; your TP is likely to already be behind a PP, possibly a PP that counterfeits your TK (the limp-cap from UTG screams AA); and, even if all 5 of your outs are winners, they don't give you good enough odds to call here. Flee.
