Default Re: 10/20 Live Top Two Pair

This is a tough spot. I don't like 3-betting, as you'll often get capped by a straight and have to pay more BBs to try and fill up on the river. UTG+2 is a concern with his weak lead, and given the read I think it's possible you still have him beat. You have 4 outs against 22/55 and a straight, but are drawing dead/close to dead against 77/66. I don't think a fold can be too wrong here, with the pot being 7BBs and you having invested only 1. Getting 7:2 to call and not closing the action kinda sucks if you think you have 4 outs a lot of the time.
