What would you do?

Well, you don't build a big pot by just calling here. The bigger the pot, the better it is for you.

I'm trying to figure out why you're doing this now that I realized what is going on.

There's 3 loose limpers who will call anything, but 3betting knocks out the blinds. You certainly have ~20% equity here and reraising allows you to peel till the turn for your set. But I don't see the benefit in knocking out the blinds when they have very little effect on the equity of your hand. Can you explain?

There was an almost identical question asked by Chris Daddy Cool a while back that stirred up a good discussion:

Has some numbers on how many people you need to raise suited connectors, and when its profitable to call +++

Edit: Noticed the number of posts by some of the people in that thread. Boy have they been busy here since then!

Nice find. Makes me feel like were feeding off the fruits of foregone posters.
