i like a fold preflop. look at the stack sizes of the two guys that are in the pot. neither has deep enough stacks, imo, to play this low pocket pair.

having called, seems like a good spot to C/R allin. i don't think you're folding 77+ either way, but i think that gives you the greatest opportunity to do so. leading out, they are either going to call or raise, and will be PCd at that point.

Very similar to my hand here,.

Good stuff in that thread.

I bet, you have good pot equity, want to get rid of the flush draws so all your outs are clean.
