Do you normally call 75s to a tag raise in BB? I think thats a leak.

Calling any 2 suited from the BB for one bet when 3-handed is at least break even. Peter_rus had an analysis at one point. Potentally things like 24s would be -EV, but 75s is certainly playable.

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Something like 50/50%.

I guess I feel like I really have to be playin my A game to make 75s profitable in the long run. I would need alot of control over my opponents and a good image to play this.

What would you say is a safe hand value to cut playing suited gappers in the BB to a raise and call from two opponents (assuming no great reads, decent opponents, and average image)?

I would say mine is roughly 87s. Am I leaking?

Looks good. The only thing that would make this not good is if UTG rarely folds the flop or is highly prone to 3-betting everything.
