    Default tough call

    no stats on him(no pahud)...he's not been incredibly loose but seems as though he's been in most of the pots im in

    would like recommended play on the turn also, i know my bet was weak

    CO (t2370)
    Button (t3900)
    SB (t5120)
    BB (t1035)

    Preflop: Hero is MP1 with 7, 8.
    UTG calls t100, Hero calls t100, MP2 calls t100, 3 folds, BB checks.

    Flop: (t450) 7, 5, T (4 players)
    BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets t300, MP2 calls t300, BB folds, UTG calls t300.

    If you are gonna raise turn raise it to 800-1100. Only thing you are worried about is a c/r from UTG. The flush draw missed. AK wouldve raised PF A10 wouldve reraised flop. AQ AJ Probably owuldve raised PF with that many limpers. Gotta punch it hard on the turn.

    What about A5 or A7?
    Raise or fold PF. Cbet flop (after raising PF) and then check/fold turn.

    I really don't like your turn bet, if you're going to follow through with what is essentially a bluff in an un raised pot (I don't even see the point of this) then please bet bigger.

    Pot odds possibly dictate a call but I don't like calling his raise unless we have any reason to believe that he bluffs for no reason like yourself.

    Why did you bet the flop? You're not the pre flop raiser betting into 3 others with middle pair no kicker no draw?

    I didn't see that at first. I'd probably just fold it then.

    This was my first reaction too, I'm not even attempting to bluff here, I'm check folding the flop.
