How to play premiums on the button

DTD300 yesterday, level is 1200/2400/300
Alex Goulder has just been sat down 2 to my left and we are playing 7 handed i believe. This is the 2nd hand Alex has been at the table.
We open the button to 5200 with
SB (guy who has been gunning for me all day trying to own me etc) peels.
Alex very quickly makes it 17400 by just piling on top 3x purple chips on to his bb.
We started the hand with exactly 131000 sb covers us both, Alex has about 160 i believe.
We are the next table to break in 2 people time I believe.
WWYD?

Yeah fold, I mean chip EV wise you may find we have a profitable jam, but don't really like it in this tournament risking a really decent stack which u can pick on ppl with for what is a pretty small edge. And nothing else really fits.

yeah aite maybe I'm just overthinking it cuz I was just insane card dead and finally found what felt like the nizzles, I folded after about a minute

Take out your Nandos card and get an autograph, then pass him one of the pieces of you soul from your pocket.
Smile and pass it over, let him know there's more where this one came from.

2 PHA threads about me this week BOOOOOOM #madeit
you have a pretty profitable jam here imo. there's 30,200 in there and you're jamming 125k. I know it's loads of bbs but the pot is swelled by the sb peel so my 3bet is kinda big (7.2bbs). Whether it's worth it in this tournament with all the value elsewhere is debatable, probs a fold and don't tell me what you had situation

This is just one of those spots, Alex has made a good 3bet and the reason it's a good 3bet is because it's not worth your time defending against it with a hand as strong as 77, he might have 79s but w/e well played its ok to be bluffed from time to time.

so alex has just sat down & gets a 3b in on his 2nd hand at the table?

i'm surprised no one has suggested a 4b to 30k

think this is quite a good idea - even though 77 is a rubbish hand to 4b/fold and it might as well be 72, there's still going to be a massive difference in the range I'm 5b shoving and the range i'm 3betting, enough so to probably make a profitable anytwo 4bet. Tom isn't to know that though.
Assume you meant 4b/fold julian and not call it off?

hmmm,
armed with the assumption that you'd expect me to fold 77 to a shove it's not so straightforward anymore.
sorry, i'm trying to post with flair today & am already tying myself up in knots.
limp 77 on the button & see a cheap flop anyone?
