Can't recall if I called preflop here without looking at UTG's stack or if I assumed we would pick up a caller or 2 to give me implied odds, but please ignore the preflop play.

What's your flop line here?
No reads/stats on SB but UTG is 9/8/5 over ~50 hands. His WTSD is 25%.

Stacks:
MP3 with $50.75
CO with $63.35
BTN with $29.75
SB with $46.25
BB with $63.25
UTG with $13.70
Hero with $50.75
MP1 with $33.95
MP2 with $147.95

Hero ???

Does your line change if your opponent is a full stack with the same stats?
What if your opponent is a 20/10/2 shorty?
A 20/10/2 full stack?

Against a full stack, I'd be less inclined to call down.

Against a looser but less aggressive shorty, I might raise or fold depending on if I had a c-bet read or something like that.

If we call here aren't we committing to call off his entire stack? Aren't there too many scare cards on the turn or river to do that? Does the presence of the SB and the possibility of a ck/raise effect your decision here?

Didn't notice the flop was 3-way. I'd prolly fold then. But heads up against a very aggressive short stack, I'm calling down a lot on these flops that miss their range.

This guy might be a little too nitty for my tastes. I'd prefer if he were like a 15/14/6.

But once we've called preflop, I think we can play our 7's against a shallow stack as 2nd pair.
