You hold 77 in MP

1) Limp
2) Fold
3) Raise

I limp

So, I limped, and CO+1 raises. 1 caller in the blinds. 1 limper between you and the raiser left to act after you.

Do you now:
1) Call the raise
2) Fold

Open limping 77 in MP isn't the best play IMO. If you knew somehow that everyone would limp behind then limping is fine. Raise this baby preflop though.

Almost never fold pocket pairs for 2 bets more preflop after you already put a bet in (ALWAYS call one more bet). This is an easy call when it is one more bet to you preflop.

Am I first in? If not, how many limped in front of me, and what kind of players are they? Are the players between me and the button tight or loose? Am I going to flop a set?

The answers to these questions would tell me whether to limp, raise or fold.

Call CO+1's raise.

Call the raise getting somewhere around 7.5:1 to call the pre-flop raise assuming the other limper will call 95% of the time.
