    Default 77 over pair facing a reraise?

    i think this is a fold but hes a fairly loose aggresive player,thoughts?

    No Limit Holdem Tournament
    $6 + $0.50 Sit & Go (Turbo)
    6 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    UTG gangirlfriend (1820)
    UTG+1 nickelbird23 (955)
    CO axil (1095)
    BTN cocoboddd (1255)
    SB Hero (1450)
    BB Joey Produce (2425)

    Blinds: 25/50

    Pre-flop: (75, 6 players) Hero is SB
    gangirlfriend raises to 100, 3 folds, Hero calls 75, Joey Produce calls 50

    Hero bets 200, Joey Produce folds, [color=#cc0000][b]gangirlfriend raises to 400

    I would feel like i had to call this, but i think its a must fold here

    If I am calling a raise from the SB with a small/medium pocket pair, I am playing primarily for set value (unless of course we flop something like a monster draw) so I'm not going to commit my whole stack with much less than that.

    On the flop, I like your lead but I reluctantly let it go to the minraise. You could be being bluffed off your hand with a hand you beat, but there's no way to know.

    Yucky donk bet and easy fold.

    You destory your set mining odds by donking out like this. Anyone decent is probably raising you here or at least flatting his UTG range. Scarcely a turn you'll like and you won't be able to double barrel, so he'll take it off you then.
    This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.

    Hmm, you have a point here. If we were in position and opp checked I could see a bet but since we are OOP I tend to agree with you.

    what hand do you lead then shove over 10, 10?.

    Yeah fold.

    You may be leading right now, but the next two cards can only do one of two things here, help a straight or give an over card, both of which hurt you.

    Fold it. Most likely has 88 or comparable.

    TT is really hard and depends on reads on UTG. With JJ I'd probably just shove over and hope he doesn't have QQ+.
