I am sure everyone told you that if you are going to raise, you must raise more, especially since you are going to be at a positional disadvantage for the rest of the hand.

Flop: ($3.25) 7, A, 8 (4 players)
Hero bets $3, UTG folds, Villan calls $3, CO calls $3.

This part of the hand is fine. You cannot risk letting a free card come off here. The two callers may not be giving you as much respect as they should here becuase you did not define your hand that well preflop.

Now you have to use the information you have up to this point to make a decision. They both limped pre-flop right? What would that do that with--weak aces, weak suited aces, suited connectors, small pocket pairs, maybe hands like AJo ATo, KJo KQo.

Now what kind of hand would call a pot sized bet on the flop. The flush draws will almost always call in this game. Hell, even a bare OESD will call in this game. The weak aces are almost certainly going to call in this game.

I think will that board and since you showed some strength preflop, the two pair and set hands are going to raise you on the flop.

So what do I suggest? A push. Flame away.
