pushing in the money

[stripsqueez]

party $200+$15 - down to 3 - i have T3500 in the SB and get AJo - the button has T4200 - blinds at 200/400 - button raises to T800 - the BB has the remaining T1900 after posting - the BB is solid

i know about the button - he is your garden variety chook - i would guess he played about 3 times as many hands as me to get here - raising to T800 is a standard arrangement since he assumed a comfortable lead - he folds complete unsuited trash - he will limp with semi trash and do this with pretty much any A or K or suited cards - i dont think he has a premium hand - he is worse post flop than he is pre

i went into the tank which is rare - the button is going to continue to create a lot of action - which means i'm big odds for 2nd by playing tight - i have no fear of playing the button heads up with a small stack - hmmm

i push
