Also you can very well be behind on 5th here I'm not usually raising with an 87, I'd call.

The raise on 5th is likely intended to sandwich Seat 6, who called with a T-9 here. The +EV from getting Seat 6 to fold or put more money in the pot usually outweighs the possible -EV from maybe being behind here against Seat 2.
