its probably a pretty good play as long as are the assumptions about the players are correct. the likelihood of the fold probably more than compsensates for the 2 - 1 dog he would be against 2 overcards . an overpair is quite unlikely and unlucky to run into.
raising on the button will cause weaker hands to call however in this situation with the stack sizes it souns like these players would have only called with good hands.
