Default Re: Another 77 hand

[ QUOTE ]
I'm new to this table. 18/12/2 limps UTG+2. LPP 51/7.2/.6 limps along in MP1. I overlimp in MP2 with 77. I did not feel the table conditions were right for a raise; the three players behind me were loose. The 20/4/1 SB completes and an unknown but seemingly okay BB checks.

Flop: (5 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
SB bets, BB folds, UTG+2 raises, MP2 calls, I call, SB calls.

Turn: (6.50 BB) K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
SB checks, UTG+2 bets, MP2 calls, I raise

UTG+2 either has 55, a flush draw with a hand like KdJd or QdJd or more likely a set. With his stats he'd probably raise 88+ UTG and limp pocket pairs worse than 8s and some random big but not too great cards. Therefore I don't like this raise. I don't think this is for value against UTG+2's range and I don't think you can push him off his hand. On the bright side though you are probably beating SB and the LPP
