Default Blind defense at the bubble (AQ)

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) converter

Hero (t2095)
UTG (t1555)
Button (t3100)
SB (t1250)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls t150, SB completes, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t2095 (All-In)</font>, Button calls t1945, SB folds.

OK, 2 questions...

1. Do you like the push?
2. What is your hand range for the Button (no reads)?

1. Yes
2. Really wide, most times not very good, occassionally a monster

I'm going out on a limb guessing you ran into the monster. I'd still push almost every time in that situation.

I really think that this answer depends on whether or not the button has limped recently or not. If he has always come into the pot for a raise as the opener I think I might give some thought to folding. But even then I'd probably push anyway.

Without any reads i think you have to push.

If you have seem him limp before then you should reevulate things. If this is at a $22 very few people limp with monsters espcially on the button.
