Default Re: Overpairs that may not be good...

Imo, it is getting harder now days. I see some very strong players play 55 like it is AA. As such it gets very hard to put some good players on a 'normal' hand range.

As UTG+1 is solid it is safe to assume that he sees MP2 for what he is. That being said he can say you took the same line. That leaves UTG+1 in a hard spot, he can not let you lead the action post flop and he reraise because MP2 may get scared and fold which leaves UTG+1 in an unwanted position because you also have a hand.

It looks from here as UTG+1's action is that he has resigned this hand and future hands like it to splitting MP2's pot contributions between the two of you, and UTG+1 sees no sense making it expensive for the two of you to share.
