Re: live 67s Button
[ QUOTE ]
In HEPFAP on pg 33, the authors write (paraphrasing) that raising 87s in late position is probably a good play, but if you are against opponents that play too many hands and go too far with them, there is less value in raising so you should usually just call because you do not need to tie them to the pot.
The authors also state that part of the reason for raising is to get the button but we already have that.

i dont understand this. if you hit just a pair of 8's or 7's you arent going to win anyway. it doesnt matter if you raise PF or not. you want to tie people into the pot for when you hit a monster hand.
if anything, this argument better applies to a hand like AJo, for obvious reasons.
