Hand from live NLHE tournament

[Tiresman]

I would like to see a discussion on how others would play the hand.

This hand is from a 60 man $250 +50 Live NLHE tournament.

There are 3 players left with First getting $6,500 second $3,200 and third $1,600. The stack sizes are as follows:

SB 52,000
BB (Hero) 54,000
Button 44,000

The blinds are 1000/2000 with a 300 ante

We're in the BB with .

We have been selectively aggressive and running well.

The button has been raising about 80% of his buttons since we've been 4 handed or less. He makes his standard raise to 5000 and the SB folds. We call the 3000.

The flop comes:


....... and we check. Our opponent bets 9000. What’s our play?

As a side note, we’ve yet to execute a check raise since play began at the final table.

I re-raise preflop, either AI or plan on calling the allin, as played I shove the flop over his bet.
