Maybe i have a leak of missing value on the river , i just do not know if this is an easy value bet .

villain unknown.

I am not really commenting on any street because i just think this is a pretty standard hand all the way through.

Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite. View Hand #37532552

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with 7 7
UTG folds, Hero raises, 6 folds, SB calls, BB folds

Flop: (5 SB) Q 5 3 (2 players)
SB bets, Hero calls

Turn: (3.5 BB) 8 (2 players)
SB bets, Hero calls

River: (5.5 BB) 9 (2 players)
SB checks, Hero ?

River: If we bet the river we should hope to be called more than 50% by a worse hand. I can imagine that Ax and pairs will call us, but a pure bluff or clubdraw won't. Maybe he will even throw Ax away because he think he is already beaten. In seldom cases we may even be subject to a bluffcheckraise. The problem is that we don't know anything about his callingrange so I tend to believe he is on a draw and in most cases the draw will not pay off with an A [c] . Another reason for checking is that we for sure get information about his callingrange.

About the turn: I would raise here. We have only 2 outs so why not go for the freeshowdown. We represent at least toppair with a raise here and we get paid from drawing hands.

Flop: I would consider raise. We may make him fold cards like JT, T9, AK. But it is close. If I call I would raise the turn as above.

Preflop: I would consider not playing this hand at all. 10 players makes a decent chance that this pot becomes multiway and we are out of position and we will be beat a lot of times when the flop comes.

Agree that 77 is a lot closer preflop than people think.
But Freeshowdown raise is really really really really really really bad in this spot.
-If he's maniac enough to donk into our UTG raise, he's crazy enough to 3b bluff or 3b value bet with Qx.
-What do you weight his range? I'd say there is a lot of Qx and sets that will punish you. -You are dreaming if you think he is randomly donking with JT, 9T, and you have never played LHE if you think he would fold AK to a single raise on the flop.
-His donk reps a strong range. FSDR has its place, but its only ever useful if we get an ounce of fold equity.

I happily chk behind here. We have some showdown value, and are likely not getting called by worse. Although this may be a busted flush draw most will fold to your bet. Often he may have caught an 8 or 9 and are just slowing down as well. Even a weak Q may chk the river.

i think i would bet the river, i have seen villians call here with king high all the time. he doesnt have a queen..

i think i would also fold preflop

I would fold preflop, since it is 10 handed and we are in early position.

River I check behind. I would guess a lot of times he is betting a queen, and checked the river because he is scared of the straight.

I would raise pre but this is lowest pair I would play, betting river. Has this game been going often? Last I played FR pretty much never went.

You guys, it's $1/$2 and you want to fold 77? Maybe the Stars $1/$2 has decent regs, but I'd figure there's enough fish still to make it worthwhile to open (i would open UTG +1 in most live 40's for sure, but the rake does change the math).

As played, I think our range is perceived to be fairly strong, so I'd check behind and take a note on what he xr, b, x with. I think his most likely hand is a 5, but I'd want to see it before firing in bets that could cost us the pot (via being bluff xr'd, we'd be forced to fold. )
