What now?

Also, if preflop isn't standard please let me know.

Well, even if they're both on a draw, they probably have a lot of combined overcard outs against your hand and you're behind any bigger pair than 5s and then there's the 7 you'll see from time to time.

I'd c/f the turn.


EDIT: PF is ok with me. If they limp/fold a lot you could raise, but I like the completion from the SB as well.

i would raise 55 pf most of the time to build up a pot and you can win it often with a c bet.
As played i would check and fold the turn.

i call preflop with this hand, but raise more frequently with hands like nines.

I think the stack sizes are important preflop. Calling is fine with 2 smallstacks and only one bigger stack in there. With two limpers I think completing is fine even with bigger stacks, but if there was only one limper I think raising is good.

Flop is fine too. I would check turn and see what happens. No need to get crazy anymore because 55 = 5x in there.

I lead out again for 2/5 pot... they will let you know if you are beat, but easily could be floating two overs/flush draw...

(edit: hmm... the consensus seems to be against me on this one.. what's wrong with my thinking here? I think we are ahead here a good chunk of the time and betting out protects our lead/charges overcards... c/f= major weak sauce IMO...)

I agree. No one here has indicated a bigger pair, and it's foolish to be afraid of ONE card (the fourth 7). Bet again and make them pay to try to suck out on you.
