you should be raising pre flop in this spot ...

you want to keep the pot short handed ... by calling you will generally get the pot 3-4 handed, which is the worse case for mid pockets

PF without a read is ok, you could raise PF but if u expect a lot of ppl to call behind it's ok to overlimp.

This is a good spot to raise the flop, try to get button out of the hand, therefore you will be closing the action on later streets.

Raise preflop, keep the players minimum, flat call the flop, see the turn card, see about flush draws/straight draws and probably fold if any J/Q or higher came.

I don't think anyone has two overpairs to you, SB is possible, but I think it's more likely it's just two overcards.

I raise this flop. Get the button and lets see if SB has a bigger pair or just overcards. I dont like waiting for the turn because there are so many cards that can come that leave hero guessing. If my raise is called (and it usually is unless they are 3 betting JJ+) I would bet the turn check if checked to so that if i dont feel the river is a value bet I just check behind.

I'd raise. There are way too many scare cards (any card above a 7) that can come down on the turn and I really want to force out the button behind me (and possibly one of the other callers).

This is a super easy raise pre-flop with only one limper. You would love to get rid of the blinds and get it heads up with position so your c-bet would take the pot down.

How do you know someone is going to bet the flop? it's probably less than 50-50 that someone is going to fold overcards on a raggy flop like this.
