Default 1/2 live hand

good, loose passive game at hooters.

i'm in LP w/68cc. three limpers in front of me, and i limp. four to the flop w/~9$ in the pot.

flop is A 9 7 rainbow, no clubs. ep guy (~200$ behind, total unknown) checks, mp guy (~400 behind, decent taggish guy) opens for 7$, guy to his immediate left (~100 behind, also decent taggish guy) immediately raises to 20. i have ~300$ behind, with only the BB to act after me. what's my play?

I fold

decent taggish guy opens in a multi-way pot
another taggish guy raises without much behind
you can easily be sandwiched if you just call

a raise just opens up a whole can

if it was the typical loose passives, I'd call
but, it looks like you got involved with the Taggier type in this hand

they made it too scary

1) threat of being sandwiched
2) not even drawing to the nuts
3) questionable implied odds if you hit and both taggish noticed you cold call

4) fold flop.

you don't think either of the taggish guys stack off with say, a9 or 97? i guess the second tag is pretty short...

Yeah, this looks like a fold to me.

(1) Pot is small
(2) You have no chance of being ahead
(3) You have the ass-end of a OESD
(4) 2 players that like their hand, so there's no FE

Caling is bad. Raising is bad.

Fold - betting could be reopened and not worth it
