 ok. Reads are important here
UTG is 14-11 and will only very rarely limp UTG, low pocket pairs - not sure how low. Turn AF 0.25 River AF 1. Major weakness seems to be that he has a phobia of sets, can be pushed out of hands too often. I've been exploiting that too much this session.
MP is 20-10 but fairly solid post-flop. Have him as a biggish winner over 1k hands. Has a tendency to c-bet too often and then fold to ANY resistance.

So, pre-flop is fairly standard. Flop is based on reads - I scoop about half the time here - and for info, it tells me that MP has an overpair and UTG probably has a hand (draw seems unlikely given the board)

Turn - you could argue it's the best possible card for me... I've got to bet it, but I'm not happy about UTG's behaviour earlier - his range is 22/33/77, guess he thinks my range is overpair/set. Once he calls the turn bet I put him on 33/77 only, he would probably fold 22 to this action (maybe not?)

odds say push right? standard?

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Preflop: Hero is CO with 4, 4.

i dont like the bet sizes. please dump the minraise...i know its a pet-peeve of mine, but look at it closely.

pot is $9.75 when it comes to you. you raise it up to $15.75. UTG calls almost 3:1 and gives MP1 $3 into $21.75!!!!! 8:1. with deep stacks behind, he can call a gutter profitably here, imo.

as played, i am still not laying this down most times. but, i puke/call MP1's shove.

is 56s in his range? how bout suited A's like A5? surely this isnt an overpair like TT.

i am not good in this situation because i play this hand VERY differently.
LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!
