No doubt they are hugely profitable hands, but whenever you face a lot of action on the river in a multi-way pot, they are probably no good.

No one has mentioned a raise on 3rd. Is that a rediculous idea?

With an A 2 5 out there I would wanna see 4th pretty cheap. I don't raise third too much in general though

Not ridiculous, but I think limping is better. A Five is gone, which has a pretty significant impact on greenage's high chances. Two limpers have strong door cards, so there's a pretty good chance that Seven-high isn't the best low draw. I play this hand all day long, but I think it's better to limp in and rely on implied odds.
