5/5 game, $10 straddle on. hero limps with QAT9
Effective stacks roughly $700.


5 to flop, hero first to act.
Flop ($50) 872
Hero leads $50, gets two calls.
Turn ($200) 8725
Hero bets $125, with $500 behind. I think I can get 87 to fold here, and still have equity if called. One calls (all in for less), another calls that has hero covered.

River ($600) 8725K
Hero bets $200, with $300 more behind. Villain raises, puts hero all in. Hero?

Not sure why you're asking this
It's entirely opponent dependant

Trivial call

The way you played the hand makes this a must call. You’re getting better than 4:1 to call it off.
If you have doubts about your hand at showdown you should start by not betting each street to commit yourself.
Your turn rationale is puzzling. You say you can get 78 to fold but I doubt it. You’re saying you have enough equity if called. You hit your equity but are doubting yourself. If you were looking for a non club 6 as the equity you are seeking if called on the turn, then you don’t have enough equity.

Ty for the replies. I posted the hand as villain played it. I was the "villain" above, who raised river. Wondering what your thoughts were on calling it off with 2nd nuts.

I had A876, so raised thinking that it's such a polarizing spot that I have to have the nuts here, so thought the opponent would fold. Guess I perceived the situation poorly.

I mean if you're ever gonna bluff here you had the one card you need to do it...I wouldn't be too results oriented about how the river played out. Though I think the shove might be easier if he'd bet less instead

Villain is getting such a ridiculous price that I think you get called a lot. If you were deeper or he bet less then I would like it
