On this hand, I don't really know if I tried too hard, or my reasoning is justified.

UTG+1 is unknown, MP2 is an ATM-maniac who's able to push anything post flop, bottom pair, gutshot, air. His VPIP is over 80, and PFR over 50.

The real problem on this hand I think was my first call.
I had position but I was not closing the action, as for the implieds, I think the fact that I've seen MP2 pushing with anything several times during this session is enough. (His stack is pretty big because he was getting pretty lucky, hitting gutshots, runner-runner...).
Putting everything together I decided to take a shot at it even though I didn't close the action.

But... I got raised. X(

The second call is an easier one, UTG+1 probably has a big hand, MP2 is still in the hand, I got position and I'm closing the action. If I hit the 4 I'm definetely stacking one or both of them. I call.

well I think it depends on UTG+1.

If he is a bad player, I would call as well, and he would reraise us only with premium hands which is ok (it won't happen very often).

If he is a decent player, he will know your cold calling range is mainly small PP and then he could reraise with his whole range to chase you out of the pot. Then I would fold.

In this particular case, he is probably some sort of a weak player holding aces since he reraised, but not enough to chase you out of the pot...

I think both calls are pretty standard. You have great implied odds in each case against a tight UTG+1 openraise and a complete maniac.
