Default 2/4 Party 6M - Backdoored something pretty, perfect spot to overbet?

UTG and CO are the reasons why I'm in the game... UTG is 84/12/1.47 and CO is player from my previous post with stats of 69/52/2.56. I'm 23/14/3.3 so they probably view me as a little wacky.


I don't normally re-raise with 87s in that position but my intention was to isolate UTG so that CO wouldn't get in the pot and hopefully hit something decent to bust UTG. He's playing pretty passive so a bet on the flop even if I missed would seem reasonable.

CO would usually go for a steal on the flop if he had anything decent so with his check behind I felt that he'd fold if he missed the turn.

Perfect spot for a river push? I'd hate value betting river and see some type of 2pair hand for UTG flat call.

I don't get it? You got exactly what you wanted? If Villian is capable of making heroic calls this is great, if not you have to vb.

if you check flop/then bet this turn, it looks like you picked up a flush draw to me and are semi-bluffing, and when it got there, made a big push to represent it...

the only reason I like the play, is b/c KJ got there...so go ahead vs a guy like this...

if he likes to make this type of call, ok. I'd rather just value bet. 2 pair flat calling you on this board is fantastic, about every conceivable draw got there. Just cause he's 60/whatever doesn't mean he can't read the board and see that his hand got rivered.
