Party 200 dollar game. First hand and im in the BB with 53o. 5 limpers to me for a flop of 853r. I check with the intention of raiseing and the UTG+1 bets 20 (the pot) clearing the field to me. I CR to 50 and he pushes immediately. No notes, first hand, and no read whatsoever.

This is a tough hand to play without reads, I am inclined to say fold it, since if he had an overpair you would think he would open up with a raise, but with 33 or 55 from UTG+1 I could see him limp in, maybe the same with 88 which you would think would be a more likely hand since there are 6 ways he could have that hand compared to the 1 way each for 33 and 55. The only hands you are beating here are 99, maybe A8 or a total bluff by him with two overcards. Fold.
