Call, probably call river as long as BB folds.

Re: (78) flop 2-pair on paired board
I like a lead for a little more. Probably 110. Half pot looks more like a stab at a benign flop, and you might get floated by a lot of stuff.
After that I would call the turn. I'd call a river bet if it's not too heavy. |

Basically, what I'm saying is I want all my bets in this spot where the board is paired to be un-readable. IOW, I want to make the same kind of bet whether I have an 8, 7, or squadoosh; especially with a common regular in the hand. With that in mind, should my standard always be for 3/4 pot? When both opponents call, my hand pretty much sucks now, doesn't it? |

Re: (78) flop 2-pair on paired board
Well, if you want to have a "regular" bet in this case, then yea, I would just always make it 3/4ths pot. And the other benefit of that is when you lead bet trips, they are more likely to shove on you than if you 1/2 bet (slight, but more likely I think).
When both opponents call, yea it sucks, but there are still a lot of draws and one might even be floating or think his A high or pp is good. I don't think your hand sucks, but definitely don't get married to it. |

Yes probably your hand sucks, but you bet so small it's hard to be sure. Bet a little closer to pot and you can confidently know you're beat with 2 callers. As played it's tough. Even if you're ahead you have no implied odds other than catching a bluff, and you don't know what BB is going to do. I think I lay it down on the turn. |
