TT & 99 you can play for top pair value with the added bonus of set value. Raise or reraise, but fold if it's 3 bets to you.

88 varies: if it looks like I'll get it down to 3 or less opponents OR the table is crazy loose, I'll raise. Otherwise, call.

Raising with 77 from the button first in. Pocket pairs lower than 77? Anyone?

Generally agree, but will raise a bit more often based on my table read. 77 and down are some of my favorite steal hands from the CO or Button - Raise if first to act, Call if lots of limpers already in, otherwise FOLD - but remember to mix it up and not be too easy to read.
