Default 99 after double straddle

Yo! Table is 7 handed, and its early in the morning. So the players are all a bit sloppier than usual, not to say they are usually good, I just mean now they are even worse...

2/5 Live NL

Stacks: Hero has $620, all players cover. Most have $1000+

Hero has the image of raising alot preflop but not winning, [I have been miss, miss, missing!!!]

Hero has 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

UTG raises blind to $10, villain re-raises blind to $15, 3 folds, Hero re-raises to $35, 2 folds, UTG & UTG+1 call.
[these two goons defend ther blind raises with anything they would consider feasible XXs+,43o+ is their range here.]

Flop $112 (3) T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG bets $60, UTG+1 re-raises to $160, Hero??
[both players are kinda laggy, but do not get out absurdly out of line...]

Basically in a spot like this where we definately have the goods, do we push now or do we smooth call to collect UTG+1, and then push any turn?

re-raise more? So you think a pot size re-raise isn't enough against straddlers/blind raisers? I am very interested to hear thoughts on this, because I deal with this stuff all the time. Also what kind of rainge should I be re-raising with do you think?

Relax, I'll just archive it... [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Well it looks like we're on the same page, I assume we're pushing any turn card right?

i would call, not giving a lot of info to them. Surely the UTG is folding now, and you have position and a monster in a big pot against a donk.

If UTG calls, you should be very careful with any overcard that would give trips or a straight. villain is placed on A10 for me, or similar.
