Hero should raise pre-flop here trying to hit a set. You should also bet this flop if checked to. As it stands, I would 3 bet here and try to fold out some overcards. If you get c/r onthe turn you can release, otherwise you are up against a 5 and a flush draw.

With your position, you could almost raise this pre-flop.

As it played out, I think I'd 3-bet the flop. You don't exactly have pot odds at this point, but I think the implied odds make this worth continuing. Therefore, I think a raise is good here.

Besides, raising is fun.

Is it ok to raise preflop because of the 3limpers or position?

I folded the flop, the tight guy had 57o (go figure), and BB won with 5Q.

I am 3-betting in this situation. A high pair seems unlikey as that would have probably been raised pre-flop, most 2/4 players tend to slowplay flopped trips. It's likely we still have the best hand, and 3-betting gives us a reasonable opportunity to get the pot heads up going into the turn.

RR was my first idea, but I was worried of trips. Without read not so easy. The pot size is medium so a fold certainly is not a big mistake. My read would have been a flush draw of the raiser.
