1/2 any problem playing these SCs?

Clarify the action. MP opens, then EP calls? I don't understand where hero is. Closing the action? Big blind?

If V is not the type to go broke with an overpair, I'd be looking to win a medium sized pot here. There are a lot of scary turn cards, so you could make it something like 55 here as most people are not going to fold an overpair to a raise immediately. After that, I would make smallish bets on the turn and river.

Yes, and I'm 1 seat before V and I l/c his open.

Limp/calling 6bb w/110bb stack oop with a sc isn't great. Fold both times is probably best.
Might call/3bet w/200bb+ stack in position.

I rather call w/pp at this stack depth.

As played on flop we never folding. Both calling and raising have merits. I probably raise, as for raise size, 5x or just jam.

Guy is running hot & you’re going to attack him OOP with 76 - not logical…
Play 76 in position where you have equity with bluffing opportunities.

Population leak, they don’t limp to fold to a bet

As played, jackpot
You have range advantage, nut advantage & are likely ahead.

From the action, your image is tight - so it’s a judgement call on what you can get out of villain. You want money in the pot, not folds. At the same time, a 4liner would crush you, so giving villain the opportunity to fold is not terrible.

Would not be too aggressive if villain stays interested - refer to Gambling 101

Don't open limp 76s from early position. Don't limp-call a 6x raise either. That's how your opponent runs crazy hot with loose players throwing $$$ at him. You could raise a suited connector once in a blue moon and being card dead means you shouldn't have an image to worry about, although it's dangerous (particularly if you're feeling frustrated at being card dead) so it's much safer just to keep folding.

You could lead out on an 876 board, V is unlikely to want to play a huge pot here and is likely to check back either flop or turn.

For that reason - and also the risk of action killing cards or being counterfeited - you should now check-raise as played. MP has cbet into two people on a board that probably favours limp-callers (and presumably he thinks he's up against two fish) so he very likely has an overpair.

Make it 70 or so which would make the pot 180 with about 140 back for an easy turn shove on most cards.

Fold pre twice.

pre is awful this deep

as played cr enough so you have less than pot to jam turn with

Thanks for the comments, very useful, you all have your good points.

AP:
Hero c/r to $45 ($167 behind), V instajams (he covers, obviously). Hero?

Well. We're not folding.

I don't know if we can raise with bottom 2 on this board. It may be a fold to the shove, but it is close against the preflop raiser, who could have 99/TT/98s or maybe JJ+. He really probably should fold some of those hands to a raise, as you have 2 pair or better a lot. You are crushed by 2 pair, a set, or a straight.

As others mentioned, limping scs in ep is really bad, but can occasionally raise them. From button or CO, with limpers behind, raising, overlimping, or folding are all possible.

You shouldn't be limp calling in ep much. Maybe with small pps to try to get a multiway pot or with hands strong enough to raise with if you think it will be 3! a lot.

Fold pre. AP raise flop to 50. Fold to a shove. I’m never getting here with 76s and my range capped by calling pre.

76s was my first crazy 3bet bluffing hand in late position. Try playing it. I’m never calling 76s except on Btn with passive blinds. 76s gets beaten by better straights and flushes, also higher two pair etc

Somewhat confusing description of the pre-flop action, but...

PRE - if no one at the table is doing much 3B-squeezing from the BTN or the blinds, I don't hate open limping 76s, especially if people are calling raises wide and lots of hands are going multi-way. At our stack depth, though, I wouldn't hate open-folding.

FLOP - I don't know how much more you can hope for with 76s. We flopped top and bottom pair. If our two opponents are mostly VPIP'ing hands that are betting than T9s, we should have the best hand here a lot.

If the PFR is last to act, I'd prefer to just come out and donk, so we can get some value from the limper, rather than checking to x/r. With $40 in the pot, I'd probably donk for $20, hope the limper calls, and pray the PFR raises with an OP.

Limp calling marginal hands is kind of donkish. Don't follow what other low stakes players do. There are times where it is OK to limp/call, but usually with hands strong enough to raise with. 76s plays badly multiway and OOP. It plays better if you raise or 3! and can represent AK or JJ+ on some flops.

How do you flop top and bottom pair with suited connectors?

776, lol? I knew what he meant...

112 bigs, flop bottom 2 on a 3 straight board: buy the ticket, take the ride.

If V's a nit who hasn't shoved w/o the nuts since the Obama Administration, we'll need to do some math, but everyone else? That's why we bring more than one buyin to the session.

It wasn't roasting but hey even if ppl thought it was, I learned something so it's all good.👍🏻 Gotta plug my leaks.

Sorry. I meant bottom 2P. I was hurrying to finish my post as dinner was being put on the table.

I am not crazy about taking this ride. Best case, you are about 73% against JJ+. You are less than 15% against 2 pair, a set, or a straight. Then you are flipping against 99/TT or like 98s. Think what he will gii with is more weighted to the low equity. You may be priced in once you raise.

how are you closing action ?????
if you are big blind and mp raises $12 then you act before early position limpers

leak # 1 you don't have basic knowledge of positions

leak # 2 calling 6x bet oop with sc

Many 1/2 players (it gets less in 1/3 and 2/5) want to see a flop and will limp/call marginal hands. This is a losing play, to play bad hands OOP and not representing anything.

I do limp in certain situations. However, you might try just never limping in any situation to get away from making bad plays like this one.

Just saw results. Never call with 76.

I said *pre*, EP and I limped and V was behind me with the open, so I closed the action to see a guaranteed flop. Ofc I'm not talking about post. C'mon dude, never mind read better, where did I say I was in the bb? Lol.
