Default Deep stacks non-nut flush facing all in and a caller

1/2 9 handed Home game.

UTG has about 350
I have about 550
Button has about 100

Pre-flop: everyone limps, I check in the BB w/T5c

Flop ($18)
8c 9c Qd

UTG bets 10, folded to button who calls 10, I call getting ~4:1.

Turn ($38)
Kc

UTG bets 30, Button calls 30, I raise pot to $130, UTG thinks for about 10 seconds, and pushes, Button sort of waves his hands, says, "alright" and reluctantly calls...

My move?

Note.. the game is pretty loose and agro, but these guys are not dumb.

Bumpage.

Is this hand really standard? And if so, is it a standard fold or standard call?

After discussion at the table afterword, it was decided that that the right play is to fold. (It's a friendly home game, so we talk strategy a lot)

I'll bite. Since Button only has $100, you are already all in as against him. The only question is, can you beat UTG? I don't know exactly what "Loose/Aggressiv but not stupid" means, but my guess is that UTG would push with a set or 2 pair here thinking that he is protecting against a one card flush draw. I think a set or 2 pair is more likely than a flush, especially if UTG would limp 88 or 99 in that spot.

You called the flop to hit your flush and now you got it. The pot is big with a potential overlay of $100 from the button who may be drawing dead or could have the bare ace of [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Heck, I wouldn't mind if Button had the nut flush since that means you are probably ahead of UTG's bigger stack.
