I'm lost preflop!

UTG: $29.90
HJ: $27.21
CO: $19.65
BN: $26.27
SB: $29.05 (Hero)
BB: $70.80
Preflop ($0.35) (6 Players)
Hero was dealt 5 5
UTG folds, HJ folds, CO raises to $0.75, BN calls $0.75, Hero calls $0.65, BB raises to $3.35, CO calls $2.85, BN calls $2.85

Should I call all low/mid pp's on this spot?

I do, I don't know if it's actually correct but you have the odds to set mine, the only issue being how often is the CO Jamming (Relatively), readless I'm assuming the CO has a wide enough range that he's calling a lot more than he's jamming. So yes, but the answer changes with the reads you have on the CO.

I dont think too call here  is a good idea in this spot you are against 3 other players and even if you hit your set against 3 other players there is also the possibility you against a higher set  with your 55 I think fold is the better option !!

I'd call. If I didn't miscalculate, you need to win another $8.50 postflop to make the call break-even (and no, you don't have direct odds since you only flop a set roughly once in nine times). That seems more than likely given how big the pot already is. And I wouldn't fear being oversetted because first of all it's very unlikely and secondly you might as well overset someone else or - way more likely - stack BB's big hand.

I doubt it. I still think you make more money off of BB's nutted hands or getting one (big!) street of value from medium worse hands than losing by being oversetted. Especially when there are bad players involved I'd never fold a PP here. And that's more than likely on 25NL.

As long as there are enough bad players involved, I'm not sure I'd ever fold a PP preflop.
It's just hard to imagine a table at 25NL I wouldn't wanna play 22 in that spot, especially since I prolly wouldn't sit on it then. ^^ If all other players are really tough or huge nits, then I guess you could even defend folding for 100 or at least 150BBs.

And how shallow... if I don't think I can win back the required $8.50 if I flop my set. But if that weren't the case, I guess everybody would have been allin pre.
