V1 very tight after the flop. ~$550 stack.
V2 very loose and aggressive preflop. Major LAG image bordering maniac. He's very aware of his own image and is a bit more tame after the flop. ~$300 stack
Hero - Tight image. V2 been busting my balls about being tight. ~$900 stack.

5 way Limped pot. V1 in the blinds. V2 in EP. Hero in LP with A864:

Flop: 973 , Pot ~ $40

V1 leads for $35
V2 pots it to $145
Hero?

Verses V2 alone I think i'm happy to put him in. He will have worse combo draws here and hands like top two.

With V1 being so tight his range is weighted towards sets. I think I'm committed to V1's entire stack if I continue in this spot and I'm not thrilled about that.

Thoughts? Thanks.

Keep calling until you can't call anymore

^^^ OmahaDonk said it best.

By raising we isolate ourselves vs V1 strongest range (but sometimes we maybe make mid/bottom sets fold). Calling gives V1 the opportunity for making the most mistakes.

I think we should be indifferent. Even if we get it all-in on the flop (assuming V2 not bet/folding half his stack) we need 39% equity.
