Default $20+2 3 handed, A7o in the BB. Stupid question!

Button doubled through me a while ago after he'd been sitting out (computer trouble?). He comes back in very first hand w/ ~ T1200 and shoves w/ blinds at 75/150. I put him all in w/ A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and he shows K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Flop was K K 9. He's playing desperate and like a donk. SB is ok but I have a good read on him. He's awfully weak-tight and has consistantly folded to my raises. We have not been 3-handed long.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t400 (3 handed) converter

Hero (t5680)
Button (t4220)
SB (t3600)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

Button limps for 400, SB completes to 400, Hero?

Given my reads I would like to hear what everyone does as far as raising or checking goes.

Check. Do you have a read on his limp? Has he done it before? Does he fold such a play to raises?

A7 might be the best hand, but its not something you can show down confidently. You don't want to inflate the pot against a donkey with a questionable hand out of position.

He open-limped 3 handed on the button. I'm not giving him credit for any kind of hand, no.

1350 out there for the taking, and it's likely you have the best hand. I seriously doubt the SB is slowplaying a monster against two opponents. If you don't give the button credit for anything, then I'm pushing as the big stack.

Well, thats what I did. I absolutely hate the 'but we can wait for a better spot blah blah blah' mentality. There is a LOT of $ out there I'd be suprised if I didn't have the best hand by the PF action.

I shoved, Button insta-called, SB folded. Button shows J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Flop was Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 10[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], turn 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], river 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. MHING.

Default RESULTS

Results suck but can I really check there w/ that much money in the pot? Raising to T1200 is absolutely out of the question.

I would generally move all-in here.
