So do you need to pay off a raise here? Unless he knows you know he knows you...he...know...uh, do you think he's capable of raising with KK/AT here?

If Button puts Shill on crapass 2pair, he got counterfeited on the river, so bet/folding is definitely not optimal.

Would the Button put Shill on 2p though? This would require a cool-call, then a cold-call with A2. And there's only 2 combinations of A2s left, or 1 if Villain has a non-[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ace.

I would expect Button to notice that Shill might know that he's raising light to isolate this CO limper, so he would 3bet with many hands, surely with big aces/PPs. When he calls 2 preflop and on the flop, I think a very likely hand for Shill here is Ax or TP/GK, since he would like to "mask" the strength of his hand by just calling and letting the other 2 players to duke it out.

As Shill pointed out, he's been playing pretty tight, and Button is surely going to notice this, so as long as Shill is not folding, he's probably worried, which might explain why he took so long to call the turn.
