Call imo, you get good odds to call. Fold is not an option since there a big change that MP and Co are calling, i would not 3bet , i like to keep it small oop.

Call +1

Hand is not that strong without a suit, and these guys don't look like folding type of players so unlikely you can isolate heads-up with a raise.

Too strong to fold though, with this hand we're looking to hit good 2prs / dominating straight draws against our fishy friends.

What world's most dangerous man said. Too strong to fold, too weak to 3bet.

I know my questions are silly. But I've been studying to understand the logic of the game. I decided to stop with NL holdem and start PLO without vices. Obviously the answer is for more experienced players, for me a simple sentence like this opens a range of thoughts. Like a phrase you said during a video in which you reviewed hands played by a member ... "Why betting is better than checking" ... Thanks for comment, it has been of great value to my development.

If you have any questions and thoughts, feel free to share them. :)

I think SeagalSteven (world's most dangerous man) explained it pretty well.
