Second hand at table. I played the first calling a raise, then folded to a flop bet.

I don't necessarily like the way I played the hand (I meant to raise to $36 or $40 PF), I should have made the decision on the flop to push instead of calling his push on the turn where he could hit yahtzee and I don't get any FE... that is, if we want FE? Who thinks we're ahead, who thinks behind? Really only a set beats me vs. his range, and I'd be surprised if he's playing it this fast, so I go for it.

Button has to have AK, KK or AA here right? I haven't been 3 betting light so I'd think he had to have a strong hand to make this kind of serious raise. I nit-folded. Who pushes?
