Flop comes 7c5c4h
We donk for pot, villain raises to 100, hero ?
Pot is 150, Hero has 375 behind.
Villain was aggro, but probably making a lot of hands. Seemed competent and talked about 2p2 and stuff at table with his friend.
Also, how do we feel about leading versus checking the flop?
7 way pot for $5, then pot is 35 on flop. You pot it so pot is 70. He raises to 100 so pot is 170, 65 to call for you. Not that significant but your math looked off so I was just making sure
I'm not a huge advocate of leading because I expect the nut straight to raise big here to try to get it in before the flush hits or board pairs, and you really can't call a PSR. Also, in a 7 way pot its unlikely for you to take it down here and there is also a good chance the nuts is out there, despite your blockers.
I would much rather check/evaluate. Mostly call if it's one bet to you and fold to a bet and raise. You can rep a FH if the board pairs and hopefully get paid if your flush hit. Problem is most people will be afraid of the flush so you are unlikely to get paid unless its flush over flush.
As played you are getting 170:65=2.6:1 to see the turn. However, your flush is 4:1 against hitting on the turn and its unlikely you will get to see a river for free, and calling will make your opponent think you have exactly what you do have and not pay off if you hit.
He's not raising in this spot multiway without at least the nut straight, and his non-PSR makes me think he's got redraws to go with it, otw he would bet more to protect it. This puts you in even worse shape if he's got club blockers. So as played I'd fold, but in the future check flop.
