All 3 of us have full $200 stacks. Preflop raiser isnt very good and I know I have him beat.

I think this type of thinking can be costly. He may not be very good but bad players get dealt 2 spades or a pair of jacks just as often as the rest of us. I only mention this because I've fallen into that trap myself - assuming a bad player can't have a big hand, even when the board and his betting makes it extrmely possible. In this case preflop raiser is just as likely to have a flush or set as the button - but you are only considering the possibility that the button has it.

Anyway, I hate to fold a set but in this case given the action I lay bottom set down.
