BB: dealing with weak button steal
This move ended up working, but I don't know if it was correct. Button had been one of the more active players pre-flop, raising and calling raises. I couldn't see folding A9o against a probable weak steal, so my first instinct was to push. Then I thought that he's loose enough that he might just call me, and why race against a weaker player when my hand was only so-so? Does anyone ever just call here and bet any flop?

I don't want to be results oriented, I'm trying to figure out if my play was good or just lucky. Against a loose pre-flop opponent (who you suspect is weak post-flop) is this a good play or should I just push pre-flop? Of course, folding is an option as well, but would have felt very weak.
