Playing with a regular cast of characters...Villain 1 is not good and as usual, shortstacked. Has maybe $60 to start hand. Villain 2 is pretty good. Very aggressive pre-flop and has $450. I cover.
I'm in bb with A
7. V1 and V2 limp. (1/2 game)button calls, I check.
Flop is A
T7. I bet $10, V1 calls and V2 raises to 25. We can rule out AA, TT, and I think he usually raises pf with AT. I reraise to $80 and both call.

Sounds like someone has the 98 Proceed with caution. If any 10 especially 10 hits the board, fold.

Most of the thoughts here are the ones I had. I really don't want to see a heart (although, if one comes, I hope its the all-in shortstack who has it). A 6, T or J will scare me as well.
Turn is 2
. Shortstack was all-in on flop (only called $60ish of the roughly $100 bet, so about 180 in main pot and 80 in side). I bet $150 and get called by V2.

I certainly hated to possibly drop 225bb in a $10 unraised pot. And I agree with the posters saying "bet 200". At least 180, as pot was 250ish.
Didn't consider checking the turn. Why? Induce a bluff? Check-raise for stacks?
Outcome: River is A
. V2 shows T7 as he folds. (He is a decent, winning player, but limps too many hands I guess.)
