Sure i could have raised 88 here preflop but i don't think that limping after 2 limpers is soo bad...

standard call because of the good odds right?
but what we do if he has a bigger stack?
dosn't looks this like we are beat?

PF- Calling is +ev but raising is +++ev.

Flop- raise more, charge draws

Turn- I'm not folding vs the shortstack.

my thinking pf was that both players don#t had a fullstack (ok 81BB is close) but i often like to limp with pp's like 88 when the limpers infront of me don't have full or deep stacks.
it just suck to raise and get 2 callers which will call you c-bet so often...

thx for the answers
