Default 77 in mp, after 1 limper, in very loose game

I suppose this is mostly just an equity question.

Say utg limps and you have 77. You expect both blinds to call, and probably the button or the co also. Is it still worth raising pf?

If the table conditions are like you say then you should be limping here. I'd limp 88 and possibly 99, but I think 99 is the fulcrum (spelling?).

Has anyone used fulcrum in a 2+2 post before?

Yes. It's a good poker word.

Catt:
With an UTG limp in the mix, the bar gets lowered since BB is more likely to come along, the pot will be bigger by the time it gets to us on the flop (unless we're betting out), and it makes it harder for button to really play a "fulcrum-like" position in a more multiway pot and therefore put us in a bad way.

PassiveCaller:
Is there a fulcrum in the range of hands that Villian has that makes this an easy call or easy fold?

Jr.Jordan:
Where's the fulcrum of a fold here if we consider we're either way ahead vs a lower K or bluff, or essentially drawing dead vs. the set?

tpir:
I don't see how there is a fulcrum in between TT and 99.


Those are just the ones I remember off the top of my head.
