Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $7.5</font>, Hero calls $7.50.
Is this generally a raise preflop? I tend to play pretty passively from the blinds against more than one limper, but I suppose it would have made this hand easier to play.
Anyway, UTG didn't have a ridiculous VPIP, so I couldn't put him on two pair on the flop. I felt as though either he flopped a set or he didn't. For that reason I didn't see much point in three-betting, and elected to call down. I was tempted to fold the river, but his betting pattern just seemed really fishy to me. By that point my hand is way underrepped, so I figured that it was a close call. Thoughts?
