This is a very important point and weighed into my decision.

With different game dynamics, I would agree. However, my standard PFR is $15, which V1 did and I was neither surprised by his raise, or by the number of players that called. That's just how the game had been going and I did give those clues in the beginning. In short, by limping I turned being OOP into being IP. Relative position is a thing and should be used sparingly, but used nonetheless.
Also, when I play a complete TAG, I don't get much action. by seeing a few extra flops here and there, most people don't notice how much I'm actually folding.

curious. what is your UTG open range JayKon?
My default for EP is to open/raise AJs+, AQ+, TT+. This obviously changes according to table conditions and my current image.

That was my final conclusion. It took a little bit to get there, as there was a lot of noise and I hadn't expected it to go from 0, to 100 so quickly.
At first, I was undecided about this hand and decided to write it up in the word processor for self-analysis. However, after looking at it, I thought it might be interesting to post.
Anyway, I did fold, as did V1. V2 (the calling station) called and V3 tank/folded, making me think he would have called, if I did. Still, I believe that steezystolz is right, much better than 3:1 should be there to justify a call.
Cards came up, V2 had 98o and V4 did have 76o. The turn was a 2 and the river was a 7 ... oh well, the fold was still right.
