Default Re: 10-20 TT on button

I disagree that there is no reason to 3-bet pre-flop. In most of the games I play, the two limpers are likely to have very weak hands, and the raiser's most likely hand is two overcards.

If you are up against A8s, 77, and AK, you should 3-bet. Even if every overcard is out against you, it isn't the end of the world. If the raiser has an overpair, I'd rather find out pre-flop than later.

The only way that I wouldn't three-bet this hand is if the raiser was very tight, and an overpair was very likely. In which case folding is probably better than calling.
