First, raise PF for reasons that have been discussed 1000x times.

Second, Im definately not folding a set in a spot like this. Garbage combinations like 52, 72, 92, 57, 97 and random draws are a huge part of his range.

As played, I would raise BB's bet to 10 and happily call of shove from SB, BB or whoever.

Raise preflop
flop ok as played
turn raise it up to 7.5$ at least
terrible fold, if they got 99,77,55, 68 you gotta pay em off imo.

BB is 62/38/1.8. I often limp in these situations, cause BB raises so frequently preflop and I will end up seing a flop with good position to the maniac. Forgot to mention this. I should have raised the turn, I agree. But how can I call such a big overbet, after a limped pot, then check on the flop and all of a sudden a double pot size raise by SB? Only hand I beat is 2pair here, and I don`t think a 20/10/2 would play it that way.

Sry that actualy was a standart raise by SB, hmm...

But why would he checkraise turn ? Looks like a straight to me

55/99/77/86 all beat me. if he had a combo draw would`t he take the free card with great odds ?

I hate this fold. You absolutely have to include 2 pair hands in his range along with the made straights and over sets and random air. Why would a taggy player check a made straight twice though? His play just isn't consistent enough with a straight for me to automatically give it to him in this spot. Also, if he has the straight, just pair the board dealer ONE TIME!

Edit: I also raise that turn bet every single time.
