I, of course, call like a jackass here and then curse my badluck when one or both opponents have me beat. In a perfect world, where I am not an idiot, I shake my head and click fold fully expecting both of them to showdown 88.

Well, the greatest ring player I am not, but I would probably call. If I knew them to be fish, I'd probably go all-in. I've seen too many people willing to raise with very little. We're talking about PP small stakes, in a bigger game, I might call, but I'd probably fold.

It's between calling and pushing. I think at the 25 your push gets called by a lot of worse hands, but here BB or button could both have AA-KK, they could have garbage (KQs, 88, who knows) also. Calling is safer, but may not have the most value. With a call, you can see if button re-raises and BB re-raises. If they both push it in, you can safely fold. If button calls, you see a flop with a situation that's pretty hairy. I like pushing here.

Default question: what more do you need to make this an easy fold?

Fold. Stacks not deep enough to call for a set.
