I wouldn't. I would only limp with 66. Maybe call small raise at a loose table, but that's about it.

i actually prefer to call raises if i know the guy is tight, you want him to have AA/KK

I think that you can call this. It's $8 more for you to call after original raise, and you still have $94 left in your stack. Do it. Spike a set. Crack him.

The pot is $36, you have to call $8, you'll have $86 left in your stack. I think it's pretty easy.

flopping EXACTLY trips by flopping a set for your pocket pair 10.775%
flopping EXACTLY a full house, a set to your hole pair and pairing the board 0.735%
flopping EXACTLY four of a kind, two cards to your hole pair 0.245%

You can add those up :P

ok good i called

the results were very unexpected (my opponents turned out to be donks)

the 3 of us checked it all the way down

flop: 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
turn: 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
river: 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

and if you can put these three on their hands with this info, you are a poker god, results in white:

 UTG had 54 of hearts
UTG+1 had JJ
CO had 88

yes. you're closing the action and with all the interest that's been shown you have good implied odds from multiple people.
