Before you tell me "LOLLOL NOOB RAISE PREFLOP" (or fold), I had good reason to limp here. I just came from a series of raises where I was pushing the table around.

Btw I figure a mini raise from this player = limp. That is why I use the term limp (even if it's for 10c). He was doing this pretty often.

Plus a few hands before this I made a questionable call from the button, flopped top 2, and mangled someone who had KK for almost 80BBs.

I felt if I raised here, there was a HUGE chance of someone popping me. Plus most of the guys here would would stack off with an overpair or TPGK, so I wanted to see if I can pickup a monster hand.

Anyways, do you call this? My read on UTG was that he was unbelievably loose preflop, but he wasn't totally retarded. I don't think he would stack off with something like A9 here.

He might stack off with top 2 if a third spade fell but it would be questionable. He'd stack off with a set pretty much 100% guaranteed though I think.

Read on MP was not much. Typical station, nothing fancy, would probably stack off with an overpair.

Do you call anyways knowing you'd probably get MP's stack, but probably not UTG's stack (or anymore out of UTG unless he picked up a beast of a hand).

Assume if you wiffed, you'd be faced with a near pot sized bet on the turn, and possibly a raise by MP but it's not guaranteed (he might fold and was on a draw too).

Edit:
Unrelated -- why is the hand converter coloring up CO and UTG but not hero.

Yes this is an easy call. If you hit 2pr or the flush on the turn you should play for stacks.

Preflop call is fine.
Flop call is fine too, I would probably put UTG on 87 and MP on a flush draw. So I would only count on 8 outs.
