2nd in chips before this hand, so I dont think I needed to open push. I thought the button was on a steal because of the limping, so I raised. Should I have folded to the push? Or simply called and re-evaluated the hand on the flop? What would you do in this situation?

Raise to 3xbb preflop before it gets to button.

Given the stack sizes, I fold to his push.
