button is loose/passive
no reads on mp2, he just sat down. I think the limp was a little light, but the table was very loose passive so i was limping pp from early. Should I have raised the flop right off? Was the call/3bet retarded? Wait to pop on the turn? Cap the turn? Pop the river when i fill up?

Call the turn, check-raise the river and call a 3bet if it should come to that. This is often enough to put in at least 2 more bets on the river.

I would just start raising this on your first chance on the flop. Pot is big, 7 players in the hand, no real reason to slow play this, just pump it until you see enough resistance to believe your behind.
Once you fill up on the river I would raise it again. I think you will be up against a straight here quite often to value raise this. Just call a 3-bet. |

1. Go ahead and raise the flop at the first opportunity. Your hand is actually quite vulnerable and you really don't want to give gutshots and hands with backdoor potential the chance to play on. With this many people and that big a pot you'll get plenty of action anyway, as people love to cold-call with overcards and crap like that if the pot is big.
2. As played, a turn check-raise would be pretty sweet. 3. You should lead this river (this is the most interesting part of the hand, in my opinion): You just sucked out on 65 (a very real possibility here). Nothing changed against the two bigger sets, but button's continued involvement suggests that some of the 8's and 7's may be tied up anyway. Given there are only 3 ways to make 88 or 77 and 16 to make 65, I think that you are a pretty big favorite on this river. Letting it get checked through would pretty much suck. If villain had 65 he may fear the boat and just call which would allow fishcakes on the button to overcall. I'm also happy to put in two bets on the river with this hand. I don't like a river check-raise because you really don't want 0 or 3 bets to go in on this river. |

Deranged:
He bets this river 100% of the time. A check-raise gives you position and allows you to only call a 3bet here. If he caps your river 3bet here you are likely dead, and if he 3bets your check-raise on the river here, you are likely dead, but you saved a bet. |

[/ QUOTE ] The reason I lead out is because I have no intention of three-betting the river and want to make sure exactly 1 or 2 big bets goes in on the river. Given all of the action so far I think playing to get 3 or 4 bets in on this river is probably spewing. Once he raises the river after the board pairs and our basic complete admission to having a set I don't think we're ahead enough to put in a value three-bet. |

[/ QUOTE ] I had a long discussion with one of the most respected SH players on this board about different river lines. Having the 4th nuts here definitely warrants at least 2 bets going in on the river, and 3 is fine. He would be going nutso with 56 on that board often enough to make a check-raise/call a 3bet more profitable than bet/call. |

hypothetically, if this was raised and then reraised after your call PF, is this hand a fold?
