Villain (600,Button) : 50s black guy. Regular. First time play with him, but he is on his third buy ins(1500). He made hero call a couple times.

Hero (3500,CO): Hero is very hot!! Only 2 hours into the session, but flopped 4 sets already

OTTH : Limp pots, Hero limps with 3s3c. 7 ways

Flop (35): 3h4d5d

Checks to hero, hero bets 35. V raises to 100, another limper calls. Hero calls.
Turn(335): Ks
check, check, V bets 200, folds. Hero calls.
River(735): 9d
Check check.

Looks mostly fine to me. Dunno, might play this flop passively 7 ways. It's very easy to get into ugly situations when you bet, get a couple callers and somebody x/r's it. Yes you have a set, but there are 38 combos that beat you, none of which I'd be surprised to see in villain ranges. And peeling for a card like Kx will get you some additional value from worse hands.

7-way limped pot at 2/5. Wish my game played this way.

As played, I think it's fine. You could consider a raise to 25 in LP with a pair, but I'd want to know more about the EP limpers before I took this route.

Agreed. Villain has us beat here often enough to warrant a passive line.

If the dude's spewing off, why not just stack his 120bb OTF?... Oh wait... I think some info on the limper who called V's 2bet is warranted, at least a stack size since we're so deep ourselves.

As played, I think a c/rai OTT is best. V seems committed & only has $300 remaining and the board is pretty wet, especially for multi-way limping rage.
