Strategy

1/3, max buy in is 1k, no rake (time charge). Most common quote from dealers is “6 players to the flop.” Most playing cannot spell vpip; if they could, they would recognize theirs around 66%.

V1 is the nittiestnitnit at the table by far. Indeed, perhaps the *only* nit at the table. VPIP well under 15%. 
V2 is meaningless reg.
V1 has just under $700, we cover. 

V1 raises to $25 from co over a $6 straddle. We call OTB with 77, 1 other caller.

5h7h8d ($85). x / 60 / we call / V2 folds.

5h7h8dQh ($205). 90 / we call.

5h7h8dQh5c ($385). 150 / we shove
