Default Re: 99 overpair vs LAG + unknown

If you chose the path of set value, what makes this so hard to fold?

In short: the BB could have basically anything, UTG+1 likely has a worse "anything", and I have a good hand. BB might have a 7, but he could have so many other hands. UTG+1 is a total moron. MP2/SB might have me beat, but MP2's going to have a hard time overcalling without trips or better since he has a pot bet and 2 pushes ahead of him.

As it turns out MP2, SB and BB folded and I was well ahead of UTG+1. I'm trying to get the weak-tight out of my game, and my instincts are that this should be (as adanthar said) an "autocall". Right now it's a "think, then call" but it's getting there.
