I'd push the 77 and see a flop with KJ.

I'd push the first hand but I'd check the second hand and see how the flop comes.

Definitely push the first one.

I push the second one as well. This lets him know not to complete into your BB, and you'll get a lot of free passes from here on out. If he keeps completing, you keep shoving.

What about the limper? I'm far more concerned about him than I am the SB.

That would depend on any kind of a read, which OP probably doesn't have at this point. I push unless I think he limped with a monster, or makes a reverse gap call with like A7o. Really he's gonna fold most of the time and it's nice to add 300 to my stack.

I folded 77, and pushed KJ. the limper called me with 88.

Wasn't worried about SB, as he had completed 2 times before that. With all that money dead, I thought I had good fold equity, unless limper had a monster. Luckily I won the hand and had a nice stack, but I wasnt sure if this was the right play.
