Assuming that one of them folds and one calls on average, your tens are getting a very good price against most reasonable ranges.

Based on your read and his bet size, it's an easy push for me.

edit: just noticed the caller. I'm still pushing.

I hate this spot as well, and I fold. It's not often that I try to push out two players (ideal result, of course). The problem is that UTG will probably call since it's not much more for him, and then button may feel he's priced in, getting like 2.2-1 on a call. I think you run into overpairs a lot here so I wouldn't want to play. QQ is a no-brainer, JJ I lean towards folding, TT I fold and hit the blunt.

Would anyone consider a kinda stop n go here? Ie., push a non A/K/Q flop?

I think that's pretty horrible because it's just calling and evaluating the flop. This is of course a good poker skill, but not something I want to do with 1/3 of my stack.

This is bad because of the three way pot. Much better if the button had folded.
