I wouldn't raise 77 from the big blind against 6 limpers but it is a question of playing style and implied odds if you hit.

The rest looks fine.

Please correct me if I'm wrong because I still trying to master pot equity and am weak on math. But in order to value raise here don't we only need our equity to be somewhere over 17%. Since no one raised the 77 must have more than that.

I'm just putting it out there, and I hope I not wrong by much because I've been playing according to that line of reasoning.

A lot of players think AK is a drawing hand. This answers your question. Do you see why?

With good speculative hands like 77 or QJs and a ton of limpers in ahead of me, I tend to raise for value. I'm not expecting 77 to hold up ever here unimproved, but getting more money into an unraised pot with 5+ limpers with 77 here seems to me +EV.

preflop doesn't matter one way or the other honestly. if it's +EV it's not by a lot, if it's -EV it's not by much either.

that said very boring hand.
