Default ($22): <5BBs, push over opponent?

I suspect that the Button is a 2+2er, if not he plays like one. Real tight early and has pushed when he should. Ie., I think he could be on pretty much any two here.

PartyPoker - NL Texas Hold'em $20 Buy-in + $2 Entry Fee Tournament | Level: 6 - 5 players (Converter: PGC)

Chip Counts:
Button: 565 Chips
<font color="red">Hero: 950 Chips</font>
BB: 2560 Chips
UTG: 610 Chips
CO: 3315 Chips

Hero is SB with 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Blinds are 100/200

PreFlop
<font color="blue">UTG folds</font>, <font color="blue">CO folds</font>, Button is All-In, Hero is ????

No way. Your hand is pretty terrible. And you lose more than half your chips if you lose.

Eh...maybe I'm wrong, but I would fold this every time.

Yeah I think you're wrong &amp; I also think it's not that close.

I thought "duuh.. easy push!" as soon as I read it. You're way ahead of his range, you won't bust out if you lose, and blinds are big.

edit: oh and if you fold, it will be very hard for you to finish 3rd, because you're one of the three short stacks. Having the 2+2'ers to your right doesn't help either. If you bust him out there are 4 left, and you have a great shot at the money.

bump. I really think this is an interesting hand that should get more discussion. Plays like this have been working well for me lately, and I believe is something that has improved my game. But, I want to be sure.
