CO in this hand is an aggressive player, a bit loose but not loose enough to play a hand like 75/74/54. He's either on a set or one pair that he can be pushed off of. Should I bother getting more involved here, or just give up on my draw? Was betting a mistake in the first place? I knew the limpers would pad the pot with calls...

I probably would have checked to see how the action developed, with the intention of a CR all-in. I think here you can push or fold, depending on whether you have any FE, and that's a toughie. If his stack were bigger, you could certainly think that he'd lay it down, but given that he just committed 1/3 of his stack, that may not be very likely.

That said, he may just be trying to take it down without a fight.

Push.

I think i'm folding here. I assume you're deciding whether to push or fold, since calling and playing this draw out of position is too expensive and not fun. The CO just put in more than 1/3 of his chips, so i don't see him folding TPTK or TP+OESD.

I prefer to check the flop, and see how things materialize.

Edit : I'm a slow typer.
