The ONLY way I fold this is if I know that the button got his stack by seeing lots o' flops and gambling it up.

The only way I fold this hand is if someones hand gets turned up and it has me beat. At 6x the BB this is an easy push.

My thinking is, "This may be the best hand I get in the next two rounds and if I wait I may need to win a coin flip just to get back to where I am now. I may win the blinds, and who knows I may double up against Ax, two overcards, or a small pair. If I'm up against an overpair then I can still hit a ten."
