I'd float and re-evaluate ott.

Good one to stove. If we assume that he stacks off with at least some sort of one pair hand (AA/AK) then its close and likely a raise.

On my HUD I have Pfr by position stats on the menu so would Check this. Where the 21/14 type is opening say only 7% UTG I'd call but if higher say 12% id raise with the intention of stacking off.

Not sure you're floating when you actually have equity. My understanding of the float is it's a cold call with little or no equity with the intention to bluff later. We have lots of equity here, so if we call it's for value.

A value call? Right now we've got equity but an unmade hand. Would you have rather I said "peel one to protect our equity and re-evaluate"? IMO it's a. coin toss between a call and a raise...but either way were still betting a hand that's gonna leave us behind or guessing >%60 of the time...so..if you raise and he shoves, then what? Call and pray to the poker gods?

Depends if I have required pot odds, simple. No praying to the poker gods, just make the right decision based on maths.
