Preflop
I think, calling here is fine, because in soft games MP will have much wider calling range, than a program like Snowie predict, and maybe one or both of them are also spewy postflop. You could also squeeze, but 77 is a bit thin against an UTG open even at 6-max.

Flop
Its a small C-bet, but even so I think, calling is a bit iffy, especially when MP has already called as well. If you are only calling to hit a 7 on the turn, you are not getting good enough implied odds, especially since a 7 might make someone a straight, and the river might bring a 1-liner. And if you are calling to try and take it away later (float play), then I would prefer to use some other type of hand with more potential and playbility. Like maybe QJs with a BDFD. With this particular hand I would just consider it a failed setmine and let it go.

Turn
You nailed your set, but I am not a big fan of this huge raise. The issue is, you kind of commit yourself to the pot, and its absolutely possible, you might be behind to a straight. So I would either just call or raise small mainly with the intention of getting UTG out of the pot, if he was some kind of gutshot draw or whatever.

When they both pile it in over your raise, its very likely, at least one of them have a straight. But unless you got over-settet, you are getting at least near the correct odds to call, so I guess, you have to go down with the ship as played. But I am not loving a spot like this, because its very marginal and create massive variance.
