    Default How do you play this?

    Playing .50/$1 NL Hold 'em

    Have $200+ in BB
    MP has $100ish

    Dealt pocket 7's

    4 calls around the table (including SB)
    I check.

    Flop:



    Check around

    Turn



    Check, I bet pot ($5) and get 1 call from MP.

    River



    I bet pot ($15) and opponent reraises to $50.
    He still has approximately $24 left in front of him.

    What do you do?

    Honestly, I think it's a pure bluff... nobody would have slow play 2 pairs on turn on turn with all those draw on board...

    If i'm wrong, you are in deep trouble.

    KJ

    put him all in.
    If this guy had AJ he would have raised PF.
    If he had A9 A7 or pocket nines, he would have bet the flop for sure, or raised the turn.
    Looks like hes probably playing A weak kicker, or he missed his FD and is trying to steal the pot.

    I would have decided to go all in hoping that he would call. He has put too much money in the pot now to back out.

    I just called. He had AK. I felt like I left $24 on the table and it seems I was right.

    BUt equally if I was the guy with AK and someone bet into me like that I would just call and not reraise. Would everybody else agree with that?

    No, I am reraising you trip A king kicker. Your correct move was all in. All the reasons stated before me were valid.

    I accept I should have reraised all in on the full house but from his point of view:

    Am I over applying the river principle here? If the guy is paying any attention I was in profit, hadn't been caught bluffing or turned over any junk hands.

    I accept that I could be betting the river with a variety of things, but what do you honestly think I am calling a monster reraise with that AK is beating?
