How's this move?

[StraitRazor]

Loose passive game with 3 good players and you are one of them.

4 players limp and you limp in LP with A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. CO limps, Button raises, both blinds call, all call to you.

What do you do?

<font color="white">I tend to raise here. I think it's a profitable play. since I should flop a playable hand often enough and the opponents are generally poor enough to pay off your big hands all the way to the river. I'd like to know what you think and what game conditions might affect this play. </font>

Is there more to this question?

[StraitRazor]

Sure...

What do you do? Your options are a) call, b) fold, c) raise. Explain.

must be inquiring about the efficacy of 3 betting preflop, eh?

[StraitRazor]

Yeah... I posted my response in white below my original post.

fold, insane.
call, standard.
raise, playable.

[Nick B.]

I would call roughly 100% of the time. There really is no reason to raise, your hand isn't good. They are going to pay you off regardless whether you raise or not, so there is no reason to cut your implied odds.
