Limps around 5 players see flop (25) 772

Checks through (I know, should've bet).

Turn (25) 772 5
I lead 20, one call

River (65) 772 5 3
I bet 50, Vilain makes 125.


I know mistakes on flop and turn, do we call his min-raise?
Do we bet river after his turn-call?

I think the entire line is fine.

Is this the kind of fish that is super aggressive post and bluffs a lot, or a more passive fish? I call if it's the former and fold if it's the latter.

Flop checks fine. Since the guy plays 50% of hands it makes me want to fold more not less. You literally beat 0 other sevens and a straight got there. Just because someone is playing every hand doesn't mean he has a bluff here. Easy fold imo.

I would call but if you're thinking about folding then this seems like a pretty good bluff candidate to me no?

Rest of hand is fine

It's so obvious that you have a 7, yet he is still raising the river? Seems extremely strong to me, unless you always fold to pressure. Still, making someone fold trips is not easy, and most people don't expect it. From my computer, it's a fold. (Also, I assume a rainbow board?)

Is it really that obvious? This could easily be like pocket 8s or something.

Just posting to inquire about checking river. I would expect to take it down ott, and get hesitant if called. Obv straight gets there, and you have no kicker.

I played a hand where the board gave me trips, I played it same as you, xF, bT, but I xR and he checked down also. We chopped because his kicker was almost as bad as mine. We talked about the hand after, and he fully expected to lose because he had a lousy kicker also. He said he was calling if I bet, not raising. People aren't THAT dumb, even really bad poker fish can see a paired board. For him to raise there, I'd give him credit.

Folding seems terrible but kinda OK at the same time. By having a 4 in your hand, you do block a handful of the straights, so that leaves the strongest 7s and FH. It looks like its $75 to win around $225ish, but I can't imagine you're good very often. Folding seems right, but you should have recognized what kind of spot you were in before you bet OTR and thought about what to do if raised.

Yes, it's really that obvious.

And if V thinks H has 88, what's he raising with? Just a pure bluff after checking flop and flatting turn?

Why bet flop? You get action from better 7's more than anything else.

By river I think your hand becomes a check/call at best. This isn't heads up its a 5 way limped pot, you have the weakest hand you can have after betting turn. A bet of 50 is only getting action from better. As played easy fold, the only hands you play this way are 7's and this is your worst 7.

What is PLTH?

Pot Limit Texas. They don't have No Limit in my city. You can raise 5 BB PF and RR 3x previous raise plus what's already in the pot. It's a way to create more rake, since PP and other speculative hands can profitably call PF.
