way cool.
however, your post reads like it is some official standard 2p2 line - which it is not. i tend to overbet pot when stack sizes are awkward, or on the river for xtra special value. overbetting here is ok, but betting pot is certainly no mistake.

sort of my point. by raising two limpers oop with 55 you turn a hand with excellent implied odds into a bluff that is fairly unlikely to succeed.

This is a beautiful spot to overbet the pot. We're going vs 2 opponents, OOP, if both sit with draws out there, they get a good price to draw if we put out a more modest bet.
Overpairs will still call/raise, we'll still go broke vs better hands, TP/two pair still call, and we get more money off draws (who most likely will call), overcards think "wtf?" and may be tempted to call to find out/get lucky, too... So overall we get a lot more value.

Dunno, go with your feeling. Just don't automatically limit yourself to the size of the pot.

I'd go with something in the range of 2.25 - 2.75, maybe just toss out something really weird like 2.37 . If it looks weird and makes them curious you'll get more calls from worse hands.

I love you shove here--- i don't think you see 66 or 3 4 like ever, I think often its a big draw two pair or a baby set like 2 2... all of which your in good against, i really think after he repops you have to get it in..... call is a terrible line and I don't really mind losing 100bb in this spot.......... if you were a lot deeper it would be different, but as played, i think its pretty standard. repoping 55 in the bb with limpers is fine, I wouldn't make a habit of it, but 1/3 of the time i'll do it, usually you just take it down right there or with a continuation bet.
