No real reads at this point except Villain is loose passive preflop 50/8. wtf is he limp calling and then reraising with? Usually when I get raised and then a 2nd guy reraises I'm looking to get out without a good hand. AA is a good hand but good enough here? I think I should have called. Maybe I can get "worst fold ever" award over at 2p2.

Should I be more or less inclined to call on a dry board vs a two suited one?

- 89MUSTANG50 sitting in seat 1 with $61.35

I dont see 55, 77, or KK playing this fast on this board. I dont think you need to worry about 57, 5k, or any other combination, even as loose as he is. I think I felt it.

r8ed,

With that much action on such a dry board - I fold, even though eupho makes a good point about ppl often not play their sets this fast. I'm also worried about the first raiser, so for me the fold is not even close. From a 50/8-player hands like K5/K8/57 are likely too.

i dont think i would fold this 4 handed. sometimes you might run into a crappy two pair but at least you have outs v them.

 if the board weren't so dry it'd be easier. I have less experience than a lot of posters, but I have never been good the few times I've called ai w a pair (no matter how good) when there was this much action around me.

I say gf, nh. If one has KJ and the other has 68, gg variance.
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?
