Button is a donk. He'll call preflop with any connector (even 3 gap), any 2 suited cards, or any single facecard. and he got lucky several times to become bigstack.

no read on co.

my thoughts were 1/2pot continuation bet, check it down, or all in to buy the pot.

What's your move on the flop, and why?

All-in seems like a fine play.

I'd check personally.

Why?

Doesn't it seem like we have the best hand?

Are we check/folding this?

Seems like a good pot going to waste when we have a decent hand and a decent size pot (giving us 1/2 addition to our stack if we push and they fold).

Basically what we need is for button not to wake up with A5/K5/K2/Q2/Q5/J5/J2, and CO to have a hand like 55+ for us to get called.

Just don't like a cont bet here, the flop is too dry, two opponents, a guy all-in (albeit for a tiny amount), SB on 8BB, bubble after this hand, us with 15BB, plenty of poker to play still, and no need to risk pissing away chips.

Meh, I think the most +EV play is to push. If anyone would like to work out the math between all-in and check/fold, it would be much appreciated.

Yeah but then you said on another post you would call ATo on the bubble if your opponent flipped TT-KK face up, when you need to be a 53% favourite to call, so I really am not sure your "feelings" are going to be anything like correct.

Read my follow-up post. I took it to an extreme. Also, nice way to take my post out of context and then troll me in another post.
