easy does it

On the turn we'd be making L2 call two cold. Do we know L2 will call two cold on a paired board with his draw? Or are we likely to force him out?

Does it matter? If you're L3, don't you pretty much auto-pop Tommy back regardless of your holding?

If Tommy drives out L2 for you and you're no longer fearing the 8, you're telling him you can beat overs or can draw to it and he's going to have to call 2 more.

If L2 is on the draw (or is letting the T bet out for his 8) but still finds a call then L3's in a bit of a pickle, but can Tommy handle any more action? I'm sorry, but I'm sure Tommy's beat if L3 pops him again in this scenario and may be drawing to a 1-outer.

Maybe L2's call keeps L3 in check; that's a table read we can't make. I don't think there's any action Tommy is going to like if he raises the turn.
