Yes, you have the button, but postflop you will have the worst relative position since CO is the aggressor.

What if UTG raises and then there are 4 coldcallers to you on the button?

I'd much rather cold-call in both cases with JTs than A9s, and not just because I'd flop a full house. You really want to have more than just a flush to play with, and A9s is just too likely to be dominated. A suited connector or a pocket pair would be an easy call though.

I haven't played .5/1 in a while, so I don't have a feel for the 'typical' player, but ...

Without any reads it is hard to know, but I think you all may be seriously overestimating the PRFs hand. Even if he wasn't a poster, there are a huge number of hands he could profitably raise here (20% or more of his possible hands). As a poster, his propensity to raise may be even higher than normal.

Against me, I would 3-bet with A9s.
