On reflection I should have waited for a better spot vs a steaming player.
Here's a very similar hand that happened today. Button is a hyper aggressive, positional player. UTG is fish/gambler.

UTG calls, Button raises to $27, Hero calls, BB folds, UTG calls.

Results:
Final pot: $1459.24
Hero shows Ts Ah 4d 7h
UTG shows Td 2c Kc 3s
Button doesn't show 7s Ac 3c 2h
I was 46% in the main three way pot and 57% in the side pot. I also picked up another $100 in net equity on the turn when he called the rest.
Would anyone who advocates folding the other hand do the same with this hand? Or is this still a bad spot over the long run?
