Re: Thoughts on this hand?

This is a tough one. You've got an overpair, but the board is scary. Plus, you're facing a bet and a substantial raise. I think with that board, you have to give button credit for a decent hand. I would put the button raiser on a set, two-pair, a pair and a straight draw, or possibly K7 or A7 (if you're lucky). button might also have TT-88. I think you can discount AA-QQ because button probably would have reraised preflop. If you enter the likely hands into pokerstove, you are a 56-43 dog. If you put button on the above hands plus any hand with a 5, then it is a race.
I would fold this one and wait for a better opportunity.

I think it's unlikely the button has a set, or even two pair. Why would he want to take the lead away from the preflop raiser, with no flush draw on board?
