Button had raised with some pretty mediocre hands and backed off at least once before in a similar situation where I had come over the top of his raise.
Here I figured he would be beating up on the BB with a pretty wide range and that there was a good chance he would lay down or call with a lesser ace or worse.
Is this a reasonable play or should I just be avoiding the big stack here?
