PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, 2.5 Tournament, 25/50 Blinds (9 handed) - PokerStars Converter Tool from http://www.flopturnriver.com

UTG+1 (t1,335)

MP2 (t1,500)
MP3 (t1,655)
Hero (CO) (t4,450)
Button (t1,235)
SB (t2,390)
BB (t1,060)
UTG (t1,455)

Hero's M: 59.33

Preflop: Hero is CO with 7, 7
3 folds, MP2 bets t150, 3 folds, SB calls t125, BB calls t100

Flop: (t450) 8, A, 2 (3 players)

Can't setmine here but can I 3bet for value? Only SB's stack size can give me any trouble.

You can setmine.20-1 is an implied odds general guideline and more used in cash games.The odds of hitting a set is 7,5 to 1.

However,in your case:
you play a tournament, where people stack off more light.
You have a position(main reason to setmine here)
There's a chance that SB/BB call,making the implied odds even better

Effective stack size means I can't set mine here :(

Even if you wouldn't be able to set mine, you will still have a decent hand with position. Basically two things can happen.

1: You play a pot HU in position
2: You play a multiway pot also (likely) in position

In the first case, you'll have a significant post flop advantage. In the second case, there's more people that can pay you off if you happen to hit your set, so you'll definitely have the implied odds. So both cases will be great.

I would certainly call. Of course if someone behind you then decides to jam you have an easy fold.

Hey Wohmfg!

I would also call here -> you're running ok against his openraising range + you have position and you don't need to have the best hand on the flop to take this pot down in a lot of cases!

Greets,
