Default Live 2/5 Pair + Straight Flush Draw.

Loose 2/5 game @ Trump in Gary, Indiana. Hero has ~700. Main Villain (BB) has ~ 300. Six way limped pot, Hero has As3s on the button.

Villain is solid for this game, I haven't seen him do anything tricky. He sees too many flops but since he's BB that isn't really relevant here. Pretty tight postflop. I'm seen him make two large bets and both times he showed down a good made hand. As the BB he could literally have anything.

Flop is 4s 3d 2s.

BB bets 25. While I'm trying to decide how much to raise, MP goes allin for 50. Everyone else folds. I decide to call, thinking that I now have to make my hand to win and would rather let BB come along. Good? Bad?

BB comes over the top for 100 more. I think he needs at least two pair to make this bet, especially given the allin player. Maybe 55 and I suppose a naked middle pair is possible. It's an idiotic semibluff if it is one, and I don't think he's an idiot. JJ or better unlikely given preflop. There is 280 in the pot, I'm in position, have somewhere between 9 and 17 outs, and almost certainly no FE. He has about 130 left, Which probably goes in on a blank turn. Push/Call/Fold?
