    Quite a bit of raising limpers goin on.

    Is this a reasonable play?
  2. Ya seems fine
     
  3. I don't love it. Here's my problem:

    1.) Iso > over limp imo.

    2.) I dunno if you have reads or no but I don't like calling the raise oop here. If he's playing 27/27 there's a good chance he iso's light which takes away from your implied odds on the set mine and he's going to blow you off the pot with garbage a huge % of the time.

    3.) I'm not sure bout this one but donk/3bet might give you more fold equity on the flop vs calling it off getting around even money on your draw. Folding to the shove is not out of the question either.
